Starship Launchpad Foundation Is Not Damaged Although The Rocket Explodes

JAKARTA - Starship's first launch, a vehicle developed by Spacex, in April failed to fly. The first stage of the rocket exploded and destroyed the launch foundation.

This failure makes Spacex learn a lot from his mistakes. What's more, Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) provides dozens of policies that Spacex must obey before re -launching Starship.

One of the problems they fix is a problem on the launch foundation. In order to avoid the same damage, Spacex installs steel plates that can remove water from under the runway.

The added plate was finally tested in prime on November 18, precisely at the launch of the second trial from the Starship. The results were quite amazing and made Elon Musk, the owner of X, looking quite satisfied.

"Just checking the foundation of the launch of the Starship and the conditions are very good! There is no need to repair the water-cooled steel plate for the next launch," Musk wrote through his personal X account some time ago.

This information is certainly good news for the company itself. Although Starship exploded again at the launch of the two and the source also came from the first stage, Spacex remained proud of the launch.

At least, the explosion this time can bring the Starship glide until the sky, unlike the first stage trial that only survives at a height of a few kilometers to finally jump back to Earth.

Luckily there were no casualties, either in the first and second launch. Now Starship will be repaired and reviewed again by FAA before the next launch license is released.
