SpaceX launched a towering prototype of its Starship spaceship into the stratosphere on Tuesday, but the vehicle exploded upon landing in Boca Chica, Texas, after a nearly seven-minute flight.
Such a fiery outcome wasn't unexpected, though, and SpaceX hailed the audacious and experimental test as a success in its"AWESOME TEST. CONGRATS STARSHIP TEAM!" the company wrote in text while showing wreckage of the vehicle, called Starship serial no. 8, or SN8. Elon Musk, who founded SpaceX in 2002, previously estimated a 2-in-3 chance that the test flight would fail. Musklast week that a "lot of things need to go right" for the prototype, called Starship serial no. 8, or SN8, to land intact.
That's because the flight of SN8 was most strenuous flight ever attempted. The vehicle also represented the most advanced Starship prototype the company has launched to date: It towered 16 stories tall, used three car-size, and came with canards and wing flaps to fly it through the atmosphere in free-fall.expanding facilities at Boca Chica, Texas
. About 6 minutes and 42 seconds after liftoff, the steel-bodied vehicle attempted to rocket to a landing but didn't have enough thrust, causing it to slam into the ground and explode.
Just to attend more investors for its false and useless idea reaching some planet that has less resources than the Earth. But for me it seems like a normal scam. “Let’s send a rocket into nowhere, pinoccios will catch this event up”. Scam as everything Musk is doing. Sorry.
