“An energetic event in the aft portion of Starship resulted in the loss of several Raptor engines prior to the end of the ascent burn,”
Space X posted on its website to explain what went wrong. This finally resulted in a lack of contact with Starship and a loss of attitude control.
In order to protect humans on land, in the sea, and in the air, the Starship then flew “within a designated launch corridor.”
The business attested that the debris did not include any harmful elements that might endanger water or marine life and that it landed inside the designated Debris Response area.
“With a test like this, success comes from what we learn, and today’s flight will help us improve Starship’s reliability,” Space X stated on the microblogging site X after the unsuccessful trip.
In order to enhance future Starship flight tests, we will carry out a comprehensive study in collaboration with the FAA and put remedial measures into place.
