SpaceX made multiple changes in the wake of a January Starship failure, only to suffer a second straight vehicle breakup Thursday.
The company notched another successful booster catch but lost contact with the Starship spacecraft at roughly the same point ...
TL;DR: SpaceX's main challenge in making Starship fully reusable is developing an effective orbital heat shield. The shield must withstand extreme temperatures during reentry without cracking.
"The most probable root cause for the loss of ship was identified as a harmonic response several times stronger in flight than had been seen during testing, which led to increased stress on hardware ...
The goal of the seventh test flight was to test several upgrades SpaceX made to its heavy-lift rocket system. After a successful launch and completing a full duration burn, the Su ...
SpaceX managed to catch the Super Heavy booster on Starship's eighth test flight today (March 6), but the vehicle's upper stage was lost about nine minutes after liftoff.
The search for debris from the exploded SpaceX Starship rocket that fell in Bahamian territory last week is set to expand to Andros after reports that some debris has washed ...
According to SpaceX, it will feature redesigned flaps and heat shield tiles. Per comments from Musk and those in his orbit, the following test could feature the first attempt to catch Starship’s ...
SpaceX said it stripped off a “significant” number of heat shield tiles from the upper Starship spacecraft, which rides atop the Super Heavy rocket booster at the beginning of flight.
