SpaceX aborts first short Starship prototype rocket hop flight
That’s not what’s supposed to happen.
A planned, short test of SpaceX’s big, silver rocket, the Starhopper,
had to be aborted on Wednesday when the craft failed to lift off its pad in Boca Chica Beach, Texas.
Flames were seen shooting out of the top of the rocket, which is a prototype of a craft to eventually carry humans to Mars.
