After two explosive failures earlier this year, SpaceX made progress Tuesday with its latest Starship test flight — even as the mission failed to complete a satellite deployment demonstration. The 403-foot rocket, the largest and most powerful ever built, lifted off from Starbase in South Texas.

That goal was partially met, but a door designed to release eight mock Starlink satellites failed to open properly, preventing their deployment.
