SpaceX loses control of Starship, adding to its mixed record

Washington DC , 28/5: The latest flight of SpaceX’s Starship, the largest and most powerful rocket ever built, got all the way up to space but not all the way back down to Earth.

The upper-stage vehicle coasted through space Tuesday, surpassing flights in January and March that ended in explosions and showers of debris over the Atlantic Ocean. But halfway through its journey, the spacecraft sprang a propellant leak.
