"Captivating Photos of SpaceX Starship Rocket's Brute Force Liftoff Explosion"
Remote cameras captured the stunning view and force of SpaceX's rocket launch that exploded minutes later. Houston Chronicle photographer Jon Shapley set up remote cameras at least a day in advance to capture the launch of the world's most powerful rocket from SpaceX's launch site. The launch pad was heavily damaged, and Shapley was able to retrieve three of the four remote cameras that he initially set up. The Super Heavy rocket failed to separate from the Starship spacecraft, and they began to spin above the Gulf of Mexico before erupting into a big fireball.
