SpaceX launched its Starship rocket on its 15th test flight from Texas on November 13. The plan was to use the launch tower's giant mechanical arms to catch both the Super Heavy booster and the Starship spacecraft as they returned separately. The booster was diverted offshore and came down in the Gulf of Mexico. The spacecraft continued into orbit and deployed 26 Starlink satellites.
