What SpaceX just did after Starship S36 Explosion will blow your mind!
Time to return to the spotlight!
What once seemed like an ambitious timeline for Starship is now taking shape, as activity ramps up once again at Starbase. Could the next launch happen sooner than expected?
In other news, SpaceX has completed another successful rideshare mission—but not without complications, as one of the onboard payloads has reportedly run into trouble.
And over in Japan, the mystery behind the failure of the Resilience lunar lander has finally been solved.
Let’s dive into all of it on today’s episode of Great SpaceX.

The S36 incident at the Massey Test Site has significantly slowed progress for SpaceX’s Starship program. If this failure had not occurred, we might already be counting down to Flight 10. However, the damage has been done, and now all attention is focused on cleanup, evaluation, and a carefully executed recovery process. SpaceX must move forward decisively to bring Starship operations back on track.
Fortunately, recovery efforts began almost immediately. On the afternoon of June 20, just days after the explosion, the first crane was spotted moving into position at the Massey area. Simple debris cleanup started soon after, which was an encouraging sign that the site was once again safe for human access. This initial progress set the stage for more comprehensive repairs and investigation.

By June 21, operations escalated. The crane was seen attempting to lift large fragments of debris. Some wreckage was so heavy that it had to be dragged rather than lifted completely off the ground. Then, on June 24, during efforts to remove a particularly massive piece of wreckage, the crane reportedly toppled. Fortunately, the situation did not appear to result in major injury or significant delay. The large debris was eventually either placed onto transport vehicles or set aside in designated areas for later removal.
Post-incident imagery of the Massey Test Site reveals significant damage. The test stand, nearby tanks, and surrounding infrastructure were all affected by the explosion. As such, the cleanup is expected to take several more days, possibly even weeks. Following the removal of debris, SpaceX will need to refurbish or replace critical systems. These include the tank farm, fueling infrastructure, test stand components, and the Ship Quick Disconnect arm. Only after those systems are restored can SpaceX resume cryogenic and static fire testing at Massey.
