00:00
Whoa, oh my gosh.
00:02
Social media videos showed debris from a failed SpaceX Starship test flight
00:07
raining down from the skies above the Bahamas Thursday.
00:10
It marks the second consecutive failure this year for Elon Musk's Mars rocket program.
00:16
The Starship's flight lasted just minutes after lifting off from facilities at Boca Chica, Texas.
00:22
A SpaceX live stream of the mission showed it tumbling uncontrollably after multiple engines shut down.
00:29
Getting video down from the ship, you can see we've lost several engines
00:32
and we've lost attitude control of the vehicle.
00:36
It wasn't clear if the explosion was caused by SpaceX's automated flight termination system,
00:41
which triggers when something on the rocket goes wrong.
00:44
The Federal Aviation Administration briefly issued ground stops at airports in Miami,
00:49
Fort Lauderdale, Palm Beach and Orlando because of space launch debris.
00:55
It said it had opened a mishap investigation into the incident.
00:59
The FAA said that means SpaceX must examine the failure's cause
01:03
and get the agency's sign-off before Starship can fly again.
01:07
SpaceX said there were no toxic materials among the debris.
