“The main anomaly” is behind the last explosion of the Spacex Starship

Musk wrote that the nitrogen Copv seems to be less than the proof pressure, within the conditions that should not cause tank damage. Musk added: “If more investigations confirmed that this is what happened, then this is the first time for this design.”

Pick

Earlier on Wednesday, a few hours before the explosion late at night in Starbes, the Consultant issued by the Federal Aviation Administration showed that SpaceX has set June 29 as an initial date for the following stars test flight. This will not happen now, and it is the guess of anyone when Spacex is another car ready to fly.

The Massey’s Test, which was called a group of weapons that once occupied the property, is located on a curve in the Rio Grande River, a few hundred feet from the Mexican border. The test site is currently the only place where Spacex can put in test procedures through the proof test and fixed fire tests before announcing that the missiles are ready to fly.

The extent of damage to the Massey Earth equipment was not immediately clear, so it is too early to determine the time the test site will take. Currently, although the explosion leaves Spacex without a facility to support Preflight test on the mouth.

The videos included below comes from Nasaspaceflight.com and Labpadre, which indicates multiple angles of the StarsHip explosion.

The Massey’s explosion is a reminder of the SPACEX rocky path to get the vehicle to this point in its development. In 2020 and 2021, Spacex lost several preliminary problems for problems while testing Earth and Flying. The visible ships 36 rises in the fire returns to these previous explosions, along with Fleal demise of the Falcon 9 missile On its launch platform in 2016, under the circumstances similar to the accident of Wednesday night.

Spacex has now launched nine Ructas on a large scale since April 2023, and before the explosion, the company hopes to launch the tenth test flight later this month. Starship has been shocking so far this year, as the latest three experimental trips ended in ROCKET prematurely. These setbacks followed 2024 victorious, when Spacex made a clear progress on each successive test trip from the sub -star championship, and reached its peak in the first hunting of the massive huge supporter in the missile with giant robotic arms on the Lad Tower.

Standed together, the very heavy supporter phase and the upper phase of more than 400 feet stands, creating the largest missile that has ever built. Spacex has already converted a heavy superpower, and the company designed the Starchion itself to be recovered and reusable as well.

After last year’s achievements, Spacex seemed to be the right path for a full tropical trip, and an attempt to arrest and restore the instant vehicle, and An important demonstration in refueling in space In 2025. The demonstration of refueling was made officially to 2026, which is doubtful whether Spacex will make adequate progress in the coming months to try to restore the ship before the end of this year.

The ambition meets reality

Spacex appeared for the first time in the design of the models championship, called version 2 or Block 2, on a test trip in January. It has been one after the other.

The New Starship design is slightly longer than the StarsHip version, which was running Spacex in 2023 and 2024. It has an improved thermal shield to determine the intense heat to re -enter the atmosphere. Spacex has also installed a new fuel feeding system to direct methane fuel to RAPTOR engines in the ship, an improved electronics unit that controls the car valves and reading sensors.
