SpaceX Starship rocket failed to reach orbit and blew up over Texas in its second launch attempt. It appears the ship did not separate from the booster when it was supposed to, NBC News reports.
The company is calling this test a success because the nearly 400-foot rocket cleared the tower.
SpaceX plans to eventually use Starship to send people and cargo to the moon and, eventually, Mars. #nbc4ny #spacex #rocketlaunch

Oops
🎉 missile testing🎉
Blowed up REALLLLL good!
That's not a rocket 🚀 problem, it's a launchpad problem.
Awesome launch. Ship can and will fly. Ship is reusable, but the launch pad is NOT.
Setbacks
SpaceX rocket achieves max q in very first flight attempt. Amazing first effort.
I love the applause when it disintegrates 😂😂
Cool
put feathers on the tail for stability 😂😂😂
Awesome job SpaceX. that was not a failure that was a success. Can't wait for the next test flight.
Crazy billionaire blows up his own rocket and before tweeting about it
Waste Not Want Not ???????????? R.A.J.
Not too reassuring for any manned flight.
What a massive lie and whitewash. The minimum mission objective was much more down range, ALL engines firing, and stable angle, not arcing like baseball. But wait let me dub in some cheering for my comment.
That was just freaking 😎 awesome it will work next time
Ummmm correction. It blew up over the Gulf of Mexico.
Elon Musk is a joke he has people do everything for him and people keep handing out money to do this as he gets rich and investors use it as tax write offs I listen to him talk and talk like Harris and Biden and the rest of the lunatics he can never answer the question without avoiding the question
Houston we have a problem 😜
🙏🙏🙏
Proof once again that what goes up must eventually come down someplace ……Gravity, it's everywhere ….
Actually blew up over the Gulf of Mexico
Success! Congratulations to elon musk and space ex and nasa!👏👏
I wonder if Joeys handlers told him it was a failure..?
He’s so far gone with his dementia symptoms,..,
He’d be unable to think 🤔 that it’s part of a successful process development…,!
Successful liftoff
Y E S !!! Y E S !!!!
Elon knew ppl were looking forward to an explosion. He gave the ppl what they wanted to keep them interested in the next launch
Unstable from the start.
Too top heavy, esp. as lower deck drains.
thrust to weight could be better too.
Elon needs bigger engines not more of them.
I hate to say it but the N-1 looks similar dwnstrs & had a similar fate…
No pressure guys..
lol.
Warner Von Braun would be happy
Was that empty? I don't think it can make it if it had a couple tons of cargo in it.
Joe Biden was driving.
👎👎👎👎👎👎👎
Government agents hade a hand in that I would bet money on it
Man. I am, so, happy I wasn’t under that. To close. Cool
Still stickyy….!
Сектанты… страшное дело…
According to ksp standards, I'd say it was a very successful flight 😂😂
🚀 The world's biggest rocket, SpaceX's Starship, went up in flames 🔥 during its first test flight to space! Whoopsie-daisy! 😂 But don't worry folks, Elon Musk isn't fazed by this little setback. He thinks these kinds of crashes are just part of the learning process for his team of rocket scientists. 🧑🔬 I mean, why make a boring old rocket that doesn't explode, am I right? 😜
Apparently, Starship is the key to SpaceX's future biz strategy and they've already scored contracts worth over $4 billion with NASA to develop a version that'll carry astronauts to the moon 🌕(not sure if they'll still want to go with SpaceX after this explosion, but we'll see!). Even though Starship went down in flames 🤯, Elon's not one to give up easily. He's planning to give it another go in a couple of months. Let's just hope they've got their fire extinguishers ready! 🔥🧯
