Major anomaly” poses another setback for the massive rocket, which failed to complete its mission on its last three launches.

A SpaceX Starship upper stage exploded during ramp-up to an expected engine test firing at the company's Starbase facility on the Texas Gulf Coast. It's an apparent major setback for the program.

The last three Starship flight tests ended with explosions. Now, Starship has exploded before even leaving the launch pad.

During a routine static fire test, SpaceX Starship 36 erupted in a series of massive explosions rattling homes miles away in Texas.

SpaceX's Starship 36 underwent a "catastrophic failure" on the stand at its Texas launch site, but the latest setback is unlikely to dent the company's ambitions.
