IFT-1 — Starship Lifts Off; Lost at T+4 Min
The first Starship/Super Heavy integrated flight test launched from Boca Chica, briefly making it the most powerful rocket ever flown at 74 MN thrust. Multiple engines failed before launch; the vehicle tumbled and was destroyed by the flight termination system approximately 4 minutes after launch. The launch pad sustained significant damage, delaying the next test.
