Stayed up and watched the live launch of Starship with the booster performing perfectly to push Starship to staging altitude. What a sight !!
Hot staging and separation performed well but 30 seconds later booster started losing engines after the flip manoeuvre and exploded.
Starship continued on its way to orbital altitude and a few minutes later it too exploded.
Space X have a loads of data on this flight to evaluate before the 3rd flight.
That booster looked incredible with all 33 raptor engines performing flawlessly
The orbital launch stand and water deluge system apparently held up ok under the immense power.
Looking forward to the 3rd flight , hopefully they get Starship to orbit.
