The eighth test of the spacecraft can reuse Starship and the super -heavy launcher for the moon missions were canceled 40 minutes before starting. It was reported by RIA Novosti.
The reason for the cancellation is not disclosed. The Starship system, developed by SpaceX for flights with drivers on the moon, has tolarely withstand seven previous tests. Four of them, spending last year, ended successfully. However, the last launch on January 17 ended in failure: the second step did not reach the orbit and Starship himself collapsed after separating from the launch vehicle. The collapse of the ship's prototype falls into the video.
Despite what happened, the director of Ilon Musk said that another test debut allowed to check some advanced parts. According to him, an oxygen leak or fuel in the cavity on the fire partition of the engine may occur on the train.
