The Telegraph published this video item, entitled “SpaceX’s Starship explodes shortly after first intact landing” – below is their description.
SpaceX’s unmanned Starship appeared to have had a successful test flight after it managed to take off and land. But then it exploded.
The explosion came just minuted after SpaceX declared the test flight a success. The spacecraft took off, climbed six miles into the air and landed back on the launch pad intact, before exploding a few minutes later.
Two previous tests of Starship prototypes have ended with crash-landings and explosions.
SpaceX plans to use Starships for both crewed and unmanned flights to orbit, as well as long-distance journeys to the Moon and Mars.
