SpaceX Starship exploded during a test flight, its debris lighting up the sky over the Caribbean Sea SpaceX lost the upper stage of its Starship rocket, but successfully returned the super-heavy booster to Earth for the second time using an advanced launch tower. This was SpaceX Starship's seventh orbital test. Starship's upper stage, which is two meters taller than previous versions, successfully separated from the superheavy booster after about four minutes of flight as planned. It was scheduled to make a controlled landing in the Indian Ocean about an hour after launch from Texas, but exploded in mid-air. Starship is the lead project in SpaceX's reusable launch system development program, which is part of the plan to colonize Mars.

🇺🇸 SPACEX STARSHIP FLIGHT 10 HITS EVERY TARGET IN SPECTACULAR LAUNCH SpaceX just pulled it off. Starship, the largest and most powerful rocket ever built, blasted out of South Texas on its 10th test flight and nailed every key milestone. The Super Heavy booster executed a controlled splashdown in the Gulf of Mexico, while the upper stage soared to space, re-ignited an engine, deployed dummy Starlink satellites, then survived reentry before breaking up on impact with the ocean. SpaceX says the mission stressed the vehicle’s limits and delivered invaluable data for the next-generation Starship. Source: SpaceCom Video: Dima Zeniuk

A new FAA Starship Flight 9 Statement just landed in my inbox. ---- The FAA issued the following news tonight. The FAA approved license modifications for the SpaceX Starship Flight 9 mission. The approval includes final action allowing SpaceX to increase Starship operations from five up to 25 per year at Boca Chica, Texas. However, SpaceX may not launch until the FAA either closes the Starship Flight 8 mishap investigation or makes a return to flight determination. The FAA is reviewing the mishap report SpaceX submitted on May 14. Learn about the FAA Mishap Response Program. For the Starship Flight 9 mission, the FAA is expanding the size of aircraft and maritime hazard areas both in the U.S. and other countries. This is a result of the FAA requiring SpaceX to revise the Flight Safety Analysis following the prior launch mishap and because SpaceX intends to reuse a previously launched Super Heavy booster rocket for the first time. Read the new Environmental Assessment for Updates to Airspace Closures to learn more.
