SpaceX Starship Rocket Explodes During Reentry


On Tuesday, a SpaceX Starship prototype exploded while attempting to land, the fourth consecutive test launch to end up in flames in recent months.

SpaceX launched the SN11 prototype from its Boca Chica, Texas, facility for a high-altitude test, with a goal of having the spacecraft execute a "belly flop" maneuver in space before returning to Earth in a controlled vertical soft landing.
