Trump and Musk Witness SpaceX's Sixth Starship Launch

SpaceX launched its Starship vehicle on its sixth test flight from Boca Chica, Texas, but aborted the planned landing of the Super Heavy booster, which ended up exploding in the Gulf of Mexico. Despite this setback, the Starship upper stage successfully reached a suborbital trajectory and completed a reentry test over the Indian Ocean, landing intact but with some damage. SpaceX is planning upgrades for future flights, including larger propellant tanks and improved thermal protection.
