SpaceX can celebrate three big wins after second Starship test flight
Starship reached a speed of 15,000 mph, then self-destructed over the Gulf of Mexico.
@arstechnica At least one newspaper, The Independent, is headlining the vehicle reached orbit before it self-destructed. That's wrong. It didn't reach orbit. This test flight wasn't intended to be orbital.
There's going to be a lot spillover from folks who, deservedly, loathe the owner of SpaceX, saying silly uninformed things about this flight.
