Big explosion at Elon Musk’s SpaceX facility (Image: Screenshot from video viral on X) A SpaceX rocket exploded during testing in Texas, sending a massive fireball into the sky, destroying a Starship prototype and halting preparations for the rocket system’s tenth test flight. The incident took place shortly before Ship 36 was set to undergo a crucial static fire test, where the rocket’s engines are briefly ignited while it stays secured to the ground a key systems check ahead of launch. In slow motion you can see that the anomaly originated somewhere above the methane tank. Almost looks like a rupture of the header tank plumbing.This is insane.... pic.twitter.com/LgGL12vsBB
