SpaceX's Starship SN10 explodes after perfect flight and landing
The ship would be used to travel to the Moon and later to Mars. A variant of this is planned in 2023 to allow a manned flight around the Moon. Despite the incident after landing, the mission could be considered a success, or so Elon Musk believes.
After the accident Musk has taken it with humor and has indicated that it has been an "honorable discharge". Indicate that the objective of the test carried out yesterday was for it to land correctly. Something that, despite the subsequent explosion, has been achieved, as can be seen see in the video at the end of this article.
Now an investigation has been launched by SpaceX to find out why the Starship SN10 has exploded. The company must now work on building the Starship SN11, which will have to repeat in the footsteps of the ill-fated SN10 rocket, but not explode upon landing.
The Starship, in its final version, is 50 meters high, has three gigantic Raptor engines as propellants, and will act as SpaceX's next-generation launch vehicle and spacecraft, thus replacing all SpaceX vehicles and spaceships. existing in the early 2020s. The launches with the Starship will be more economical for the company, and is that they improve in every way the current Falcon 9, in addition to that they will open the door to serve as cargo ships for the arrival from man to Mars, and make long-distance commercial travel on Earth via suborbital flights.
