Analysis Flight 7 Explosion Data After Found Weird Ship 33's Debris...
Nearly a week has passed since the Starship Flight 7 mission, yet we cannot help but marvel at what SpaceX has accomplished. Perhaps the most striking aspect is the explosion of Starship 33—a dramatic event that has captured global attention. However, is this truly the disaster that the media has portrayed it to be?
The data from the explosion of Starship's seventh flight has shown us how the rocket was destroyed.
Let’s find out on today’s episode of Alpha Tech:

The success of Booster 14 was evident and required little discussion. The more pressing issue lies with Starship 33, which SpaceX had poured immense effort into refining and upgrading, aiming to set new records, only for it to unexpectedly explode.
From the very beginning of the launch, Starship appeared to exhibit suboptimal performance. At around 1 minute 30 seconds into the flight, camera footage showed a shield—made of an unidentified material—detaching and fluttering in the wind. While this was not a direct cause of Ship 33's explosion, in many cases, such an issue could pose a potential risk to cargo flights and result in more severe damage during reentry. Hopefully, this minor flaw will be effectively addressed in Starship’s next launch.

The problems didn’t stop there. Starship continued its ascent, and at the 8-minute mark after liftoff, one of Ship 33’s sea-level Raptor engines failed.
Shortly afterward, flames became visible on the hull of the vehicle, suggesting a fire was already underway. While some flames on the outer body near the engine vents can be expected, their persistence in this case was a clear sign of trouble.
As the flight progressed, two more engines failed, and by the eight-minute mark, it was evident that something was seriously wrong. Methane levels on the ship dropped rapidly, further hinting at a potential leak somewhere on the vehicle. At 8 minutes and 27 seconds, SpaceX telemetry updates ceased, with the numbers on-screen freezing.
