The rocket and spacecraft lifted off safely, with the Super Heavy booster firing all 33 engines. During this latest test, several engines shut down prematurely.

The Starship then successfully separated from the Super Heavy booster. The Starship fired its engines and launched into space. This process destroyed the booster, causing the Super Heavy to explode over the Gulf of Mexico.

However, the Starship spacecraft was only able to continue its journey for a short time. A few minutes later, SpaceX was unable to re-acquire a signal from the vehicle, forcing the company to activate the Starship's self-destruct feature.

This is the second time SpaceX has unsuccessfully launched a Starship test into space after the first failed attempt in April this year.

The main goal of the test is to separate the spacecraft from the rocket and launch it into space. The test is part of SpaceX's ambition to produce a large, multi-purpose rocket that can return humans and cargo to the Moon and Mars.
