That went up a lot faster than before.

Booster lost its engines after hot staging.
 
Uh oh, we got engine problems on Superheavy and Starship....
 
lol the soulless narrator on the livestream casually remarked "yeah it'll splash down somewhere in the gulf..."
 
The loss of a booster should be considered at least a partial failure with Starship goals. Why? The Boosters are what are required for launches, and if you seek to achieve rapid reusability you need to constantly fly the boosters. If they're lost, you can't do that. It doesn't matter if you have a billion Starships if you don't have any boosters.

Booster looks total fail on return or something, engines failed after sep or something didn't go right even for a controlled land at sea.
Presiona para expandir...
Some bits and pieces coming off the engine area. Still seems to be somewhat controlled though.

Beyond the RVac failure ship seems good.

SH managed to relight. At least for a second.
