Musk's SpaceX’s Ninth Starship Test Crumbles Mid-Mission; Falls and Crashes Into Indian Ocean| Watch

SpaceX’s highly anticipated ninth Starship test flight ended in failure after a series of critical malfunctions mid-mission. Launched on May 27, 2025, from Starbase in Texas, the spacecraft initially achieved a successful ascent but quickly spiraled out of control due to a fuel system leak. The mission, which aimed to test reentry dynamics with missing heat-shield tiles and deploy eight Starlink simulator satellites, suffered multiple setbacks—including a booster loss and payload door failure. #SpaceXStarship #StarshipFlight9 #SpaceX #ElonMusk #StarshipSpaceX #Starship #SpaceXStarshipLaunch #StarshipLaunch #SpaceXLaunch #StarshipNews #SpaceXStarshipTest #StarshipFlightTest #Starship9 #InsideSpaceXStarship #StarshipUpdate #SpaceXNews #Flight9Starship #SpaceXStarshipHop #SpaceXStarshipBase #SpaceXStarship9 Also Read SpaceX Starship Explodes Mid-Flight During Third Test, Firm Cites 'Rapid Unscheduled Disassembly' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/spacex-starship-explodes-mid-flight-during-third-test-firm-cites-rapid-unscheduled-disassembly-4165683.html?ref=DMDesc As Sunita Williams Returns To Earth From Space Odyssey, Visuals From Dragon's Splashdown Out | WATCH :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/as-sunita-williams-returns-to-earth-from-space-odyssey-visuals-from-dragons-splashdown-out-watch-4098607.html?ref=DMDesc Sunita Williams, Butch Wilmore Return To Earth Safely After Unplanned 9-Month Space Mission :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/sunita-williams-butch-wilmore-return-to-earth-safely-after-unplanned-9-month-space-mission-4098583.html?ref=DMDesc
