The head of SpaceX, Elon Musk, said that the company will be ready for a new launch of the superheavy Starship rocket in 1-2 months, Interfax reports.

"It looks like we will be ready to re—launch in 1-2 months," Musk wrote on social media.

SpaceX launched a Starship rocket from the Starbase launch pad on Thursday in southeast Texas. As part of the first flight, the rocket was supposed to perform one orbit around the Earth and land in the Pacific Ocean, 225 kilometers from the coast of the island of Oahu (Hawaii). However, a few minutes after the launch, the rocket began an uncontrolled rotation and exploded.
