SpaceX's Starship failed launch: Florida airports halt flights

Published On Mar 6, 2025, 8:17 PM

SpaceX's recent launch of its Starship ended in failure when the rocket spun out of control shortly after taking off, leading to a temporary halt of flights at multiple Florida airports due to safety concerns over debris. The FAA is reviewing the incident, and SpaceX plans to analyze the data collected to understand the cause of the failure. This incident marks another setback for SpaceX following a previous failed launch earlier this year, which also resulted in the grounding of Starship launches.
