SpaceX Starship Suffers Mid-Air Explosion
In a dramatic turn of events, SpaceX's Starship rocket experienced a mid-air explosion during its latest test flight. The incident, captured in a striking image, showed fiery debris streaking across the sky over Florida and the Bahamas. According to reports, contact with the Starship was lost just minutes after launching from Texas, leading to the premature shutdown of engines and an unstable flight.
The mission aimed to deploy four mock satellites. Despite the setback, SpaceX managed to recover the first-stage booster. The incident serves as a stark reminder of the challenges and risks inherent in space exploration.
