SpaceX launched the Starship rocket this Thursday from Texas, the most powerful ever built by humanity and with which one day they dream of even reaching Mars.
The first two tests of the rocket, almost 400 feet high and which could be used in the shorter term to return to the Moon, were a relative failure from which, however, SpaceX said it had obtained valuable lessons for that third test, which until now is being developed successfully.
The rocket's objective was to take off from a part of the Gulf of Mexico, next to the Mexican border, detach itself from the phases that would help it reach orbit, circle the planet, and also land intact, given that it is a reusable vehicle. , in the Indian Ocean.
There were no astronauts or satellites on board.
