Minutes after taking off from a launch pad in South Texas, the rocket appears to have exploded above the Gulf of Mexico.
SpaceX said it would attempt the first launch of its Starship rocket system on Thursday, April 20, after a launch attempt on Monday, April 17, had to be scrubbed due to issues with the launch vehicle's first stage.

The brutal Arctic blast threatens the coldest weather in the United States in two decades. Is the worst yet to come?

Asarco has filed a lawsuit against one time suitor Sterlite Industries for backing out of a $2.6 billion deal to take the US copper miner out of bankruptcy in 2008.
Though the verdict of the bankruptcy court needs final approval from the district court, something that Sterlite is banking on, legal experts said that step was just a formality and nothing more. In its ruling filed late Monday, Judge Richard S Schmidt of the bankruptcy court at Corpus Christi in Texas recommended the district court judge to confirm the Grupo Mexico's plan and reject Asarco's own plan, which is sponsored by the Vedanta group company.
Asarco's unsecured creditors will support Sterlite Industries, the flagship firm of London-listed Vedanta group, in the bidding war for the bankrupt US copper mining firm.
A federal jury has found five people guilty of conspiring to obtain fraudulent work visas for nearly 90 Indian nationals in exchange for at least $20,000 per visa, the US Attorney's Office said.
Sterlite Industries, the flagship firm of London-listed Vedanta Resources, may consider legal action if the bankruptcy court favours Grupo Mexico's counter-offer of $4.1 billion for Asarco, the US copper mining giant. Sterlite's takeover bid for Asarco hit a bump when a judge of a bankruptcy court in Texas signalled on Friday that he might give Grupo Mexico, Asarco's estranged corporate parent, a last chance to resume control of its US subsidiary.
