A SpaceX Starship exploded shortly after liftoff from Boca Chica, Texas, marking Elon Musk's second launch failure this year. Despite the explosion, SpaceX successfully retrieved its first-stage booster. Falling debris led the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to divert flights from four airports in Florida, including Miami International. The FAA has launched a mishap investigation to discover the cause of the explosion and prevent future incidents. The launch failure drew comparisons to an earlier mishap in January, underscoring ongoing challenges for SpaceX's program.
The Federal Aviation Administration briefly halted flights to four Florida airports, including Miami International Airport, due to falling debris from SpaceX's Starship explosion.
Following the launch failure, the aviation regulator has initiated a mishap investigation to determine the cause of the Starship explosion and identify corrective actions.
