Space X, a space exploration company in the United States, exploded again. This is the third time in a row that the prototype of’Starship’ exploded during the test launch process.

According to the U.S. IT (information technology) magazine The Verge on the 3rd (local time), the SN10 launched by SpaceX from the Boca Chica launch site in Texas on the same day flew to an altitude of 6.2 miles (approximately 9.97 km) and then at 6:14 PM. It landed safely in minutes. However, a few minutes after landing on the ground, flames erupted from the bottom of the hull, and the SN10 ended the journey with an explosion. The exact cause of the explosion is not yet known.

SpaceX lost its prototype on December 9 last year and 3rd last month because it could not prevent the explosion that occurred during the test launch. The one difference between the SN10 launched this time and the previous SN8 and SN9 was that it landed successfully. Bloomberg took this point and said, “SpaceX has made some progress.”

SpaceX also commented, “The key to this test launch was to collect data on rocket control when re-entry,” and “It was a successful flight.” Elon Musk, the founder of SpaceX and the CEO of Tesla, a US electric vehicle company, tweeted, “We succeeded in landing the whole (without being broken). And wrote.

The final goal of SpaceX is the migration of Earthlings to Mars. For this, SpaceX plans to bring people to the starship and return to the moon within two years. If it goes according to SpaceX’s plan, Starship, which will reach 120m in length, is expected to be able to travel between the Moon and Mars with 100 people and 100 tons of cargo.
