SpaceX Booster 18 suffers damage after test anomaly at South Texas site

A major phase in SpaceX’s Starship test program faced an unexpected setback on Friday when Booster 18, the company’s first next-generation Block 3 Super Heavy booster, sustained significant structural damage during a ground test in South Texas. The incident occurred at SpaceX’s Massey test facility near Starbase, where the vehicle was undergoing routine gas-system pressure checks ahead of more rigorous structural proofing. Shortly after 4 a.m. local time, livestream footage captured the

Explosion at SpaceX Texas site halts starship launch plans indefinitely

A powerful explosion rocked SpaceX’s testing facility in Massey, Texas, on Thursday, bringing preparations for the company’s next Starship launch to an abrupt standstill. The blast occurred just moments before the Starship Ship 36 prototype was set to undergo a critical static fire test. This phase involves igniting the engines of the rocket while it remains firmly secured to the ground, serving as a final trial of engine performance and systems integrity before a planned launch.

SpaceX Starship Prototype Fails, Disrupting Air Traffic

On Thursday, SpaceX's latest Starship prototype experienced a catastrophic failure in space, eight minutes after launching from South Texas. The spacecraft, which was carrying mock satellites as its test payload, lost communication with SpaceX mission control, signaling an anomaly in its upper stage. This led to a total loss of the spacecraft, marking a significant setback for the company's Mars ambitions. The failure had an unexpected impact on air traffic. At least 20 comm
