Man, I've never seen a team so cheerful when they had "failed", you know these guys will make it the next time. Good luck X!

[rador]

The fact that it even went of the launch pad is already a massive success

[cakemix]

The reaction of the crowd is like watching a big fireworks. Even if you fail, it's fun and exciting!

[nredm]

That's a massive achievement. It made it further than N1

Incredible work. I need more fireworks next time.. Don't disappoint us...

[Infernoblade]

It's so bittersweet, but damn they made some really great progress! 😢

So this is how the Kerbals feel when the kraken attacks.

I'm not a rocket scientist, but having the entire rocket go boom is a bad thing, right?

2:25 the fuse for stage sep exploded but no separation.

[zoneout]

it didn’t achieve orbit, so it self destructed lol.

[glintrhmj]

This was a monumental achievement no matter what the end result!!! I’m so glad to watch this phenomenon space X will do it next time for sure!!

"Awaiting yeah you're waiting for that thing to stabilize. It limped up there once it left the pad.

[qtruth]

I’m not a rocket scientist hee hee. But I must say those were the slowest fastest 360s I’ve ever seen in my life.

[beyondboundaries]

Really amazing to see people happy about their output. Inspiring stuff 😭😭

[japrogramer]

That looked expensive. It looks like they forgot to use metric units for separation

[LuisMendoza-ppqi]

As an engineer...I wouldn't clap 👏 if it failed..

[DJIronChef]

im so confused, why are people cheering when it blows up

[melzboy]

After the explosion, where did starship landed? Is it still somehow stacked? Im sure it didnt just poofed in the air right? Just curious where it landed or did it land?

[tamarockstar]

I’m sure they told them that even if it blows up they still want them to cheer

[jaliaskilo]

It hit the Firmament… As expected. Space travel is not possible. ✅💯😎
