As the Spacex Gears to the ninth flight of the test of its heavier heavy ships Launch the vehicle, the company has released the findings from investigating the explosion at the long stage of the rocket, which is set “shipping”, on the eighth test of March test.
Flight 8 Launched March 6 From the Spacex to make Starbase in the spacebase and test facility at the southern texas. The mission is mainly LIKE TO SIMPLY 7In which the first stage of vehicles are super heavy boosters successfully repeating Starbase to get the “Mechazilla” chopstick-ass. The ship, however, for flight 7 and fly 8, the fare is not good as the super heavy counterpart. (Starship Flight 9 scheduled to launch May 27.)
Flight 7 and fly 8 each ends with many explosions at the Atlantic Ocean that appears from Florida, the Bahamas and Turks and CaicosIt’s raining burning stars in the beverage’s lower. Flight 7 ship encounters a propellant leak and Susecraft’s “Attic,” toward the blast and absence of it. The side side, flight 8 follows similar notes, but instead of an attic fire, the final flight called “basement,” which brings out its burning death.
In this case, “basement” is to close the ship’s business with six strong raptor rocket engine. Flight plans for eight star star launch to send four dummy payloading simulates to spacex Starlink Satellites are about 17.5 minutes after the alsaff, followed by a controlled Indian Sea diffusion from Western Australia for about 50 minutes. But it also doesn’t get the opportunity to do, and now we know why.
A “flash” occurred in one at the center of the ship, sea-level raptor engines, followed by a “forceful event” carrying machine closure, says the spacex of an update. The two remaining sea level levels immediately throw their push, as well as one of the ship-to-ship machines, which causes the start of car control.
About two minutes after first flash, spacex lost vehicle communication, which prompts automated spacecraft’s automatic stop stopping spacecraft and next self-destruction.
“The most likely cause of the vein for the loss of the star is recognized as a hardware failure to one of the stage rapelant centers resulting in inactive propellant mix and igsulting.
Too heavy too, though successfully returned to Starbase and the warm arrest of “Mechazilla,” it didn’t do no incident. Only 11 of the flights 8 booster’s 13 machines used for the first burns of expulsion successfully in the reign. Its seizure burns the launch of tower launches to see 12 of 13 machines that have trailed, including one in the past not yet returning machines.
The Spacex tracks the cause of “torch ignition” issues with each of the malfunctioning engines, as a result of the “thermal conditions of the local igsuut,” as the company. To lighten these soup issues The future flight of the star, Spacex says they reinforce affected areas with additional insulation.
The stars are designed to standard change and enhance man’s ability to reach space. The eighth flight attempt is a reminder of the amount of placing a real world in the world regularly, while increasing controls for public safety for public safety, in … pic.twitter.comMay 23, 2025
Fixes for the upper stage of the star above stage of some bolts in some critical ship junctures and plumbing development so they do not deserve:
“The long stage of the star will receive a further preload of key joints, profillant cleansing systems. Profillant to introduce Raptorship 3 engine to include increased rapellant’s mechanism.”
The Spacex says their investigation includes over 100 long-term testing of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA in Federal Avations and Fonjunction of NASA, National Transportation.
In a statement issued May 22, the FAA says they are, “performing a comprehensive spacox safety review Starship Flight 8 Mishap And determined that the company satisfies the factors of the mistake, and therefore, the star car can fly. “
The same day spacex releases their flight 8 examination results, the company also officers Office has partnered The date for flight 9 flight 9 will dance to the same first stage supporting star 7, during a window launch at 7:30 pm GMT (2330 GMT).
The Spacex will flow on the mission living on their website, as well as their X account. Space.com will also be broadcast to our homepage, starting about 30 minutes before revolt.
