Every SpaceX Starship explosion and what Elon Musk and team learned
Who can believe these PR stunts are real?
If at first you don't succeed, try again. Spacecraft development is a risky and sometimes explosive business.

SpaceX's Starship prototype spacecraft is an example of that. The fully reusable launch system for eventual moon-and-Mars trips is no stranger to explosions, ruptures, and failed landings.

A supercut video shows the main SpaceX failures (some intentional, others not so much) from Starship's early development.

At 395 feet (120 meters) the stacked Starship and Super Heavy rocket is the world's tallest rocket, and Starship is designed to do complex flips and maneuvers upon landing.

Many of these failures happened, therefore, simply because Starship is a new system trying to do unusual things. All the same, the footage is clear (and entertaining) example of some of the challenges of spacecraft development.

I'm not who you think I am. I'm all PR.
COMMENTARY
: Should Elon Musk be invested in? Yes, absolutely. Everything he does is a front (like Mark Zuckerberg, Bill Gates, and other "one man shows") supported by some arm or arms of the government, particularly black budget projects.

When this government reverse-engineers recovered UAPs, there is no reason for solid fuel rockets. Anti-gravity technology exists and is in use. Payloads regularly go up, apparently from somewhere out in Central Asia or The Stans, to support platforms and colonies, projects and expeditionary forces.

I'm rich enough to buy youth and dumb enough...
See Michael E. Salla and John Lear for mind blowing details too radical to mention. This being the case, everything the billionaires are doing with regard to space is fake and a distractions. That is to say, it is purposely misleading and sucks up all the energy and attention in the room. Meanwhile, the military-industrial complex has bigger fish to fry, bigger projects, more surveillance, more control.

Since neither Musk nor Zuckerberg have outlived their usefulness, expect to see more from them. So their stocks will rise, just as cryptocurrencies will, but the big names have no real future, just planned obsolescence. Invest, make money, get out.
