Assessing the Future of SpaceX's Starship After Dramatic Launch and Environmental Concerns.

SpaceX is cleaning up the damage caused by the launch of its fully-stacked Starship rocket, which lost multiple engines and caused severe damage to the ground infrastructure. The company hopes to launch another Starship rocket as soon as June or July, but that timeline depends on a variety of factors, including repair work, regulatory signoff, and the readiness of its next prototype. The Federal Aviation Administration is investigating the launch, which triggered a review, and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service disclosed that the launch started a 3.5-acre fire on land owned by Texas' Boca Chica State Park. SpaceX has as many as 10 further Starship prototypes in various stages of assembly, as well as up to seven more Super Heavy boosters.
