The United States abruptly halts new spacecraft tests following a resounding explosion caused by Elon Musk!

The explosion of 's Starship rocket has caused a lot of reactions. The American authorities have decided to stop any new , and the FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) will conduct a thorough investigation.

Despite this, Elon Musk is not giving up and warns that it is only a matter of months before he tries again.

U.S. authorities investigate Starship explosion

The explosion of the Starship rocket quickly raised concern among . authorities, who decided to conduct a thorough investigation into the incident. The FAA said it would investigate the Starship incident, said in a statement. “An anomaly occurred during ascent and prior to stage separation, resulting in the loss of the vehicle.”

The Starship rocket attempted its first orbital flight using 30 engines instead of the planned three, and that eventually led to the rocket's explosion. The FAA said it would investigate the incident to “protect the public during launch and re-entry operations of commercial space transports.”

Environmental groups sue FAA over SpaceX

But the problems don't end there for Elon Musk and SpaceX. Environmental groups have filed a lawsuit against the FAA over SpaceX's launch license. The groups claim the April 20 explosion is the latest of at least nine explosive mishaps at SpaceX's Boca Chica base.

It disrupts a federally protected wildlife refuge and vital habitat for migratory birds. “Noise, light , construction, and road traffic also degrade the area, which is home to endangered ocelots and jaguarundis, as well as nesting sites for endangered Kemp's Ridley sea turtles and critical habitat for endangered shorebirds,” the lawsuit adds.

In conclusion, Elon Musk remains determined despite the obstacles and criticism. U.S. authorities continue to investigate the Starship rocket explosion, and environmental groups are suing the FAA over SpaceX. SpaceX's future remains uncertain, but Elon Musk isn't giving up.
