About four minutes into flight, just as the booster rocket was meant to peel away from the craft and propel it into the atmosphere, the whole thing came tumbling down — literally. See the devastating moment (below):
But it wasn’t the explosion that really got social media buzzing. It was the way SpaceX’s Twitter account referred to it! As you can see (below), minutes after the blow-up, SpaceX reported “Starship experienced a rapid unscheduled disassembly”:
Sorry, WHAT?! A “rapid unscheduled disassembly”?!?!

SpaceX continued their thread by trying to find the optimism in the failed launch:
Congratulations?! After that?? Look, we know they can learn from failed launches, but the naked spin they’re putting on this was just too much for folks over on Elon’s other shaky endeavor.
Twitter immediately pounced! Some criticized Musk’s sus instincts for the big boom:
Others joked about how the company and its founder would spin things in a positive light:
And most picked up on the “rapid unscheduled disassembly” phrase and ran with it!!!
As you can see (below), there were TONS of jokes to be made on that:
And more continue to come in throughout Thursday morning!
On a more serious note, there was also some speculation about whether the launch might have been rushed. After all, it was scheduled for 4/20 — the same day we know
