The strongest rocket in the world, the Starship, was just launched by SpaceX.
The launch was successful.
Everything went wrong up to this point.
The rocket was finally launched by SpaceX after several months of testing.
Launched from the Texas Starbase launch complex, it had a ninety-minute orbital flight.
When it soared to a height of 90 miles (148 kilometres), things started to go wrong.
Initially, the Super Heavy first-stage booster of the rocket burst.
At the time, it was passing over the Gulf of Mexico.
The ship then kind of vanished.
Despite this, SpaceX remained positive and declared the launch successful.
A press release from Elon Musk’s space enterprise was shared with X.
Success in a test like this is determined by what we learn, and today’s test will assist us in enhancing Starship’s dependability as SpaceX aims to establish interplanetary life, according to the statement.
Musk intends to replace the company’s flagship rocket, the Falcon 9, with the new Starship, which is why he is testing it.
SpaceX has launched commercial payloads and satellites into orbit with the Falcon 9 thus far.
Additionally, Musk wants the Starship mission to succeed because NASA is putting a lot of pressure on him.
