Another setback for “Starship” by Elon Musk: the largest race system ever built has not been able to complete an eighth test flight on Friday evening as planned. The rocket suffered a “dismantling,” the company said. Luminating rocket parts above Florida and the Caribbean.
“During the rise of the” Starship “, the vehicle suffered a fast, unplanned dismantling and contact was lost,” said the SpaceX Space Company. That “unfortunately happened last time,” said a spokesperson.
“We will analyze the data of today’s flight to better understand the cause. As always, the success of such a test is what we learn, and today’s flight will help us to improve the reliability of the ‘Starship’ was announced. This again fails a planned satellite station. It was already the second failure of the company this year with Starship.
Luminating rocket parts above Florida and the Caribbean
According to the dismantling, the dropping of parts above the US state of Florida and the Caribbean was. The American flight inspection FAA temporarily stopped starting and landings at various airports in Florida. The previous test flight of the “Starship” was already similar, at that time there had been reports about falling rocket parts on the Turks and Caicos Caribbean Island Group.
After all, this test flight and now for the third time to catch the lower rocket level at the start tower with poor. The test flight was previously postponed in recent days and canceled in the short term. The missile system was first tested in April 2023 – and at that time it exploded completely after a few minutes. In further tests, however, the higher level had already achieved this and had also landed in the Indian Ocean.
One day Rocket has to bring people to Mars
The “Starship” consists of two parts that separate after the start: the approximately 70 meter long booster “Super Heavy” and the top level, which is also called “Starship”, which measures approximately 50 meters. In general, the system is larger than the statue of liberty. Both parts, both the booster and the spaceship, are designed in such a way that they can be reused after returning to earth. The US Room Trip Authority NASA wants to send astronauts to the moon with the “Starship”, while SpaceX strives for the goal of reaching Mars one day.
