The video of the time when the Starship rocket re-entered the Earth’s atmosphere has also surfaced. In this the rocket can be seen re-entering. The rocket appears to be engulfed in a red hot flame, which is called super hot plasma field growing. The rocket’s re-entry was not completely successful because it lost contact with the command center.
The good thing is that the world’s heaviest rocket kept flying for about 46 minutes. It is said that it is difficult for a rocket to relay data to Earth while being covered in red hot flame, but Starship managed to do so. He used SpaceX’s Starlink internet satellite. It is being told that after the loss of contact, the starship almost ended in the air. Its booster has also not been received yet.
What is Starship Rocket?
Starship is a reusable rocket. It mainly has two parts. The first is the passenger carry section, which will house the passengers, while the second is the super heavy rocket booster. Its length including the starship and booster is 394 feet (120 meters). Whereas the weight is 50 lakh kilograms. According to the information, the Starship rocket is capable of generating a thrust of 16 million pounds (70 meganewtons). This is almost twice as much as NASA’s Space Launch System (SLS) rocket.
What will happen with the success of Starship?
If SpaceX is successful in its launch, then in future with the help of this rocket, humans and important equipment can be taken to the Moon and Mars. If this happens, humans will not be limited to just Earth but will become a multi-planetary species. The American space agency is planning to send humans to the moon under the Artemis mission. After the Moon, there is a plan to send humans to Mars. Rockets like Starship can be very useful to fulfill this plan in the next few decades.
