On Wednesday, SpaceX launched tested yet another Starship high-altitude flight. Starship is a huge next-generation spacecraft that Elon Musk dreams of sending to Mars.
It’s the latest mission that went as planned apart from some technical delay It returned to the ground and landed in one piece; After merely three minutes it lit up in another fiery blast post landing.
Mr Insprucker on the webcast staid, “The key point of today’s test flight was to gather the data on controlling the vehicle while re-entering,” “And we were successful in doing so.”
However, a few minutes later, after SpaceX began its recovery operations of the vehicle, they had concluded its video feed. The video cameras operated by the website NASA Spaceflight captured an explosion that sent the rocket on an unplanned second hop, disintegrating in flames.
Sure it was a smooth landing but the mission can’t be regarded as a complete success due to the fiery blast. However, this was yet another learning lesson for the engineers and the valuable data collected by this mission would them overcome the technical difficulties.
