SpaceX Falcon 9 Rocket Suffers Catastrophic Failure During Starlink Launch

A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket experienced a major malfunction during a Starlink satellite launch, with the second stage engine suffering a catastrophic failure during a final "burn" to raise the orbit's low point. Elon Musk referred to this as a "rapid unscheduled disassembly" (RUD). Despite initial contact with five of the 20 launched Starlink satellites, the low orbit may cause them to burn up due to atmospheric drag.

SpaceX's high launch rate and internal payload flexibility might help the company recover quickly, though the exact consequences remain uncertain.
