00:00President-elect Donald Trump joined Elon Musk to watch the launch of another SpaceX Starship
00:06rocket from South Texas.
00:11It's the sixth test flight of the rocket, which is the world's biggest and most powerful
00:15spacecraft.
00:18Unlike last month's successful test, however, the rocket's booster was directed to land
00:23in the Gulf of Mexico, rather than on the launch site.
00:29SpaceX and NASA hope that Starship will one day be used to get astronauts back on the
00:33moon and eventually on Mars.
