SpaceX Starship Explodes Again Mid-Flight

  • SpaceX launched another Starship rocket, but contact was lost minutes into the flight.
  • The 403-foot rocket lifted off from Texas and reached nearly 90 miles in altitude before trouble struck.
  • Engines on the upper-stage spacecraft began shutting down, causing the vehicle to spin out of control.
  • Flaming debris was seen falling over Florida, and it was unclear if the self-destruct system activated.
  • SpaceX confirmed the spacecraft experienced a 'rapid unscheduled disassembly' and is coordinating with safety officials.
