WATCH: SpaceX Starship prototype EXPLODES after ‘mostly successful’ test flight & touchdown

Published: 3 Mar 2021 | 23:32 GMT

SpaceX’s SN10 Starship prototype has made a largely successful test flight, soaring some 10km high and performing a shaky upright landing, though a small fire was seen upon touchdown before the craft erupted in a fiery explosion.

seems like it worked pretty well, except for that small bit at the end.

Yes, but it successfully flipped and landed with a soft touchdown. SpaceX had full control throughout flight. That’s huge progress for SpaceX. On to SN11!

Early consensus over on Nasaspaceflight is one of the landing gears failed, thereby getting crushed, damaging methane feed lines, causing the leak and explosion.

Well that's good, they got all the hardest parts perfectly executed. This will probably be something they will be able to solve quite easily. I'd consider it a success still overall.

It’s clearly a huge success. They proved the 3 engine relight and soft landing is possible. They just have to continue tweaking the tail end of landing. The hard parts look to be solved.

Elan Musk is the real life Tony Stark.

Elan Musk is the real life Tony Stark.

It's actually the other way around. The Tony Stark in the original Marvel comics is actually very dull personality wise. Jon Favreau explicitly based the one we are all familiar with on Elon Musk. He even got a cameo in Iron Man 2.

Landing leg on the left is dangling. And velocity upon landing is still a bit high.

Hey some nations have doers while others are just full of watchers.

Remember all the "Falcon 9 will never land successfully" doomsayers.

Now it has landed successfully around 67 times.
