SpaceX's recent Starship test flight faced several major problems. A door didn't open completely, stopping the release of practice satellites, and the spacecraft then spun out of control, leading to an uncontrolled crash into the Indian Ocean. It was confirmed that the spacecraft "burst apart." Even with these issues, CEO Elon Musk pointed out the progress made since the last two tests and promised to launch more frequently. This flight was the first to use a booster that had been used before, but this booster also broke apart and fell into the Gulf of Mexico. The main goal of the flight, which was to test the spacecraft's heat shield during a controlled return to Earth, was not achieved because the spacecraft lost control and communication. These tests are very important for NASA's plans to use Starship for moon missions, aiming to land astronauts on the moon with it.
