SpaceX launch: Elon Musk’s Starship blows up after blast off

The Telegraph published this video item, entitled “SpaceX launch: Elon Musk’s Starship blows up after blast off” – below is their description.

Elon Musk’s Starship rocket has blown up around three minutes after blasting off in an explosive end to its first launch attempt.

The 390ft rocket, which has been picked by NASA for its return to the lunar surface, took off shortly after 2.33pm.

Starship was supposed to blast 150 miles high in the atmosphere, before cruising for around an hour and splashing down in the Pacific Ocean. However, the mission ended early after the separation of the first and second stages of the rocket appeared to fail.
