Moment SpaceX Rocket Explodes In Indian Ocean After Splashdown
Elon Musk’s SpaceX successfully launched its Starship V3, described as the largest and most powerful rocket in history.
The test flight on Friday lasted about an hour and ended when Starship splashed down into the Indian Ocean, where it exploded as planned.
The launch went ahead one day after it was delayed due to a malfunctioning hydraulic pin in the launch tower.
The test flight met most of its main objectives, although both stages of the rocket experienced engine failures during the mission.
