Earlier, Elon Musk posted video the Super-Heavy version of the Falcon rocket, with its immense booster, blasting off.

Unfortunately, when the spacecraft attempted some kind of a "flip" to jettison its booster, the ship experienced "rapid unscheduled disassembly."

The female commentator says that the main point of the test was to just achieve launch, and so that part was successful. "Everything after clearing the tower was just icing on the cake," she says.

With a test like this, success comes from what we learn, and today's test will help us improve Starship's reliability as SpaceX seeks to make life multi-planetary

The left is going to chuckle, because they don't do anything in the world, and so don't understand that building your own private-venture returnable rocket fleet with the largest payload capacities is kind of difficult. Sometimes when you try to do something no one's ever done, you fail.

But the left doesn't ever do anything. Anything. They just sit in DEI meetings all day and spout rehearsed, second-hand NPC political cant at each other.
