Starship SN10 — First Intact Landing (Explodes 8 Min Later)
SN10 became the first full-scale Starship to land intact after a 10 km flight. However, approximately 8 minutes post-landing the vehicle exploded due to a propellant leak. SpaceX engineers immediately identified the fix for subsequent vehicles. The landing itself was celebrated as a milestone.
