I watched the last Starship flight from start to finish. On landing I noticed it seemed like it had a bit of a lean to it. There was also fire coming out the bottom and a remotely operated deluge nozzle was lobbing water at the base trying to extinguish it. Maybe that was why SpaceX ended the webcast before the big bang? The explosion video that made the rounds of the Internet was not from SpaceX.
Anyway, seems like the concepts they're testing had some measure of success. Space is hard. My wife was born and raised in Brevard County, FL and had a front row seat to many of NASA's FUD'S or whatever Elon calls his failures.
That said, I'm still fascinated with the cartoonish appearance of Starship. I'm waiting for Marvin the Martian & Bugs Bunny to step out of it.
Elon calls them RUDs or Rapid Unscheduled Disassembly.
