SpaceX's next test of its Starship spacecraft was a failure as the company abandoned Flight 13 mere moments before its launch from the Texas rocket launch facility, Starbase 13. The countdown ticked down to the last few seconds when an automatic safety mechanism stopped the launch because of a problem with one of the engines. The failure was a disappointment to space fans, but the abort was a testament to how well the rocket's safety systems functioned and prevented a possible serious accident.
