Another rocket launched by Elon Musk's SpaceX explodes after Texas takeoff

A rocket launched by billionaire Elon Musk's SpaceX venture exploded Thursday evening, just minutes after taking off from its South Texas launch site, Reuters reports. The company's Starbase — located in the South Texas' coastal Boca Chica area — lost contact with the test flight shortly after takeoff. While mission control attempted to regain contact, the Starship rocket started spinning uncontrollably in space with its engines cut off before exploding.
