SpaceX's Starship rocket successfully landed in the Indian Ocean after a test launch from Texas.

SpaceX's Starship rocket survived its return to Earth and landed in the Indian Ocean successfully after launching from south Texas in its fourth test mission. The two-stage spacecraft, consisting of a Starship cruise vessel mounted atop a Super Heavy rocket booster, broke apart during its previous attempt in March due to the extreme heat of re-entry. However, this time, the spacecraft survived the intense heat and transmitted data all the way to its target splashdown site.
