The SpaceX Starship rocket exploded – Mars for Musk is off the table
The SpaceX Starship rocket exploded. Last Wednesday, a massive fireball buried Musk’s dreams of Mars. This was how the latest round of tests ended. The explosion occurred around 11:00 PM local time, while Starship was on a test stand at its starbase in Texas, reports https://xrust.ru/. The management described the incident as a “major anomaly,” noting that no personnel were injured. Engineers are investigating the incident. Local authorities have been provided with information regarding the environmental impact of the explosion. Musk wrote on X that, according to preliminary data, a nitrogen COPV in the cargo section failed. The pressure was below the test threshold. By COPV, he means a nitrogen tank. The abbreviation stands for Composite Overwrapped Pressure Vessel. This component has never exploded before, added Elon.
