The Starship-which plans to one day take passengers to the moon and Mars -attempted to launch into space this morning but had some trouble while in the air.

Minutes after a successful liftoff, the vessel exploded.

According to @ABCnews, it experienced “a rapid unscheduled disassembly” and exploded before the rocket could make it to space. “As if the flight test was not exciting enough, Starship experienced a rapid unscheduled disassembly before stage separation,” Space tweeted after the explosion.

Despite that, Mr. Musk congratulated the Space team for “an exciting test launch” and said on his platform Twitter that he had “Learned a lot for next test launch in a few months.”
