Starship engine issue risks lunar return
The Starship vehicle from SpaceX experienced a malfunction in its propulsion system engine during its most recent test, resulting in one of the main Raptor engines shutting down after the spacecraft separated from the booster rocket. Despite this, it continued its journey to orbit and successfully carried out its first commercial satellite deployment. However, this failure raises concerns for NASA, as it could potentially disrupt their schedule to send astronauts back to the Moon, especially since the Starship model designed for landing relies on the same engine system to transport astronauts between the Moon and its orbit.
