SpaceX prototype Starship explodes during test flight

There is a bad news for people who have been anxiously waiting to travel in space by the ambitious venture SpaceX prgramme. It has been revealed from a video that the prototype Starship prototype "SN1" has apparently exploded during a pressure test Friday.

NASA Spaceflight reported that the partial rocket failed during a cryogenic pressure test after one of its tanks filled with liquid nitrogen.

However, the company continues to work toward the next test flight of Starship in the coming months, which will aim to send it to serious altitude for the first time, up to about 12.4 miles (20 km).
