While preparing for a 6-engine static fire test as part of its pre-flight test campaign, SpaceX's Ship 36 experienced an anomaly, resulting in destruction of the vehicle and significant damage to the Massey's rocket test site in Starbase, TX. The test site is approximately 5 miles away from the Starship production facility, and roughly 9 miles from the Brownsville city limits. Per a statement from SpaceX, all personnel are safe and accounted for: https://x.com/SpaceX/status/193557270...

Multiple angles of the explosion, including drone footage and slow motion video. The ending clips show the brightness of the fireball miles away at the production and launch sites.
