The starship is the most powerful rocket in the world and a key component in the NASA Artemis lunar program.

This was the third launch of the almost 400-foot tall rocket after the first two flight tests ended in explosions.

According to the SpaceX website, this third test flight will tackle ‘a number of ambitious objectives’ including a controlled re-entry through the earth’s atmosphere.
