Last month, SpaceX’s colossal Starship disintegrated mid-flight after spinning out of control. That loss was its third consecutive setback after flights in January and March were cut short just minutes after takeoff when the spacecraft exploded over the Gulf of Mexico, sending debris raining down from the sky and disrupting air travel.

Elon Musk’s SpaceX experienced its fourth explosion this year in testing of its rocket Starship. NBC News’ Tom Costello reports.
