A SpaceX rocket explosion occurred shortly after its launch from Texas on Thursday, resulting in ground flights being halted and warnings issued about falling spacecraft debris.
No injuries or damage have been reported, but images captured by individuals in Caribbean Sea island nations depict fiery debris falling from the sky.
This marked the eighth mission to test the rocket, and unfortunately, its second consecutive failure.
Despite the failure, the rocket’s Super Heavy booster managed to successfully return to the launchpad.
