Starship SN8 Flight Test and Explosive End with HQ Audio

Turn your volume up! SpaceX flies their test Starship SN8 from Boca Chica, TX on the journey to bring human beings to Mars. This video includes the launch, apex of the flight, skydive maneuvers and hoverslam landing tests. While the landing wasn't quite stuck and the rocket exploded, the test was an overwhelming success in gathering key data that will allow humans to one day land on the Moon and Mars. Filmed from 5 miles away on South Padre Island using multiple cameras and a high quality audio recording device.

interesting...she doesn't so much "accelerate" than climb at a steady rate. Well what do you expect from a second stage.
