SpaceX Starship explodes whilst attempting to land during test

SpaceX has suffered several delays of its test flight of the Starship SN8 - a prototype of the rocket - including yesterday, Tuesday, December 8. However, today's launch was a success. The test of the SN8 saw the rocket launched 12.5 kilometres into the sky, into 'suborbit'. Previous test flights of Starship have only 'hopped' 150 metres off the ground.
