Minutes after taking off from Texas, Elon Musk's SpaceX Starship detonated in midair. The rocket is the most potent one ever built. On the rocket, nobody was present. The SpaceX Starship was a pilot programme for a larger mission to Mars. The two-stage rocket ship used for the unmanned test flight stands taller than the Statue of Liberty. It launched from the business' Starbase spaceport, which is located east of Brownsville, Texas.

The Starship failed to separate the upper stage from the lower stage Super Heavy less than four minutes into the mission. Before blowing up, it was seen tipping over on its side. Elon Musk tweeted the Starship launch images and videos along with his congratulations to the business. He said that in preparing for its subsequent launch, the team had learned a lot.

The stainless steel Starship has 33 engines with a total thrust of 16.7 million pounds. On a mission to Mars, the Starship could carry up to 100 passengers and lift 250 tonnes. The test mission was planned to last 112 hours and not complete an orbit of the planet.
