SpaceX lost another Starship tank prototype during testing, but this time the explosion was intentional. During the cryogenic test, the massive structure beings to rupture, pops and collapses, disappearing into a giant cloud of nitrogen. SpaceX CEO Elon Musk has had quite the journey with the massive Starship rocket – multiple prototypes have burst into flames during testing. SpaceX conducted the latest tank test Tuesday, which was aimed at pushing the limits of the SN7 prototype until it failed. But the firm's fourth Starship rocket prototype was not so lucky last month.
