WASHINGTON - SpaceX mission control lost contact with the upper stage of Starship Tuesday as it leaked fuel, spun out of control, and made an uncontrolled reentry after flying halfway around the world, likely disintegrating over the Indian Ocean, officials said.
"Just to confirm, we did lose contact with the ship officially a couple of minutes ago. So that brings an end to the ninth flight test," said SpaceX's Dan Huot during a live feed.
