The two richest people on the planet are heading for a showdown in space.
Elon Musk versus Amazon founder Jeff Bezos: they both launched prototype rockets on the same day, a rivalry with billions of dollars at stake.
SpaceX's Starship is fuelled by Musk's extraordinary appetite for risk. He innovates through failure, and the seventh test flight didn't go entirely to plan.
Contact was lost with the upper part of the rocket eight minutes into the flight and engineers will be studying the data to work out why.
But the booster, which had already separated, successfully returned to base.
