SpaceX lost contact with the Starship upper stage, known as Ship.

The rocket exploded over the Atlantic Ocean near the Turks and Caicos islands.

It's currently unknown what caused the problem, but one thing is certain: Ship went out with a bang.

"Rapid unscheduled disassemblies" are not uncommon during the development of new rockets.
