NEW! Elon Musk officially revealed the REAL REASON Ship 25 & Booster 9 Exploded during IFT-2
Nealy two months after the historical flight of Ship 25 and Booster 9 lifted off from the Boca Chica, Texas test site, Elon Musk finally revealed exactly why SpaceX blew the lid off of the Starship in the latest company all Hands talk.
Back in December, SpaceX’s latest Starship test took place, and while it saw the rocket successfully lift off and complete stage separation, the rest of the test saw both the first and second stages explode at different times and far away from each other.
Surprisingly, Musk shared details about the second stage’s explosion, revealing that the cause of the anomaly was SpaceX itself. He outlined that during liftoff, SpaceX had fully filled the Starship’s second stage with liquid oxygen and methane. Once the firm tried to vent this oxygen during flight, the Starship’s second stage exploded, explained the executive.
