Musk'ın Starship'inin 7. test uçuşu patlayarak parçalandı! Ancak "Çubuklu mekanik kol", ikinci kez başarıyla roket motorlarını geri kazandı.

Elon Musk's SpaceX's Starship rocket, which is under SpaceX's space exploration technology company, exploded and disintegrated after 8 and a half minutes of the seventh test flight on the 16th. In order to avoid falling debris, dozens of flights flying over the Gulf of Mexico were forced to change course. However, although SpaceX lost the upper part of the rocket, the super heavy booster in the lower part of the rocket successfully landed and docked with the giant mechanical arm 'chopsticks' on the launch pad. (Background Supplement: Musk: Send the starship to Mars within 2 years and build a Martian city within 20 years. What role does the blockchain play?) On the 16th, SpaceX, the space exploration technology company, conducted the seventh test flight of its heavy-duty transport rocket Starship. However, it exploded shortly after launch, which was an unexpected setback for SpaceX, as the company had made steady progress in improving the rocket's performance. Although SpaceX lost the upper part of the rocket, the super heavy booster in the lower part of the rocket returned to the launch pad about 7 minutes after takeoff, slowly landed, and successfully docked with the giant mechanical arm 'chopsticks' on the launch pad. This is the second successful recovery out of three attempts by SpaceX.

The original plan was for the Starship to try to reach speeds close to orbit and deploy 10 simulated spacecraft. These spacecraft simulate the size, shape, and weight of upgraded SpaceX Starlink satellites launched by the Starship in the future. This mission was originally the first attempt by the Starship to deploy cargo in space, which is an important milestone for the rocket to enter formal transportation. However, less than 8 and a half minutes after the mission started, SpaceX lost contact with the Starship, and the launch commentator subsequently announced that the Starship had 'lost contact'. The explosion was caused by fuel leakage. Musk tweeted and retweeted a video of debris falling from the sky, saying 'Success is uncertain, but entertainment is guaranteed.' Regarding the cause of the crash, he later said that preliminary indications showed that there was an oxygen/fuel leak in the cavity above the engine firewall, and the scale of the leak was sufficient to exceed the exhaust capacity. However, there is currently no indication that the next launch needs to be postponed until next month. This mission was the shortest Starship test flight since November 2023, when SpaceX lost the Starship in the second test flight about 8 minutes after launch. This explosion was an unexpected turn of events because SpaceX has continued to make progress in the Starship test flight, and each new launch attempt has posed higher challenges. The US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), responsible for rocket launches and reentries, stated that there were 'abnormalities' in the Starship test flight. The FAA is evaluating the operation and has slowed down and changed the flight routes passing through the area where the Starship debris fell. It is worth mentioning that the day before this accident, Blue Origin, owned by Amazon founder Bezos, successfully sent the 'New Glenn' rocket into orbit. Blue Origin is trying to challenge SpaceX's absolute dominance in the commercial space field.
