I hope you’re sitting down for this, but one of Elon Musk‘s rockets just exploded into a humongous fireball. Shocking news, right? I mean this is probably only the fourth or maybe fifth time this has happened over the last few months.
The explosion came as SpaceX’s Starship rocket was being prepared for a test flight at its Starbase testing facility in Texas late last night. It’s unclear precisely what happened, but at 11 pm CDT, the rocket went kaboom in spectacular fashion. I guess someone spilled coffee on their console at Mission HQ or something. And, to be fair, it is a very cool explosion.
