It seems like the woes and worries of Elon Musk are far from over as the tech billionaire just faced another huge disaster and this around, it’s linked to his starship endeavor.
Sources from local media outlets have confirmed how the mega project worth a staggering $3 billion is now in ruins after the world’s most powerful rocket was seen exploding and going up in smoke.
The incident took place as it was gearing up for taking but failed to separate and as a result, it exploded and crumbled into pieces.
The rocket was reportedly designed to make a trip to Mars but all that we can think of right now is it making its way to the junkyard after this ordeal.
This was the rocket’s first orbital launch but it’s clear that things did not quite go as planned. As the details regarding the ordeal are concerned, it’s not known exactly how or why this has happened as the Musk team is staying silent or shall we say is opting to keep its lips sealed.
This is the project’s second failed launch to have taken place during this week and it’s definitely causing concern among tech experts.
Thankfully, the project was unmanned and is deemed to be the world’s largest and most powerful rocket of all time.
All that we know so far is that it was sent into a state of a tailspin after liftoff from the South of Texas.
And while it may have cleared this first milestone with success, the second step just was a complete disaster and resulted in a mega explosion.The failure to separate took place over the Gulf of Mexico. And that’s when it had no choice but to crash down back to earth, while bursting into flames and smoke in mid-air.
