The Starship rocket suffered a mid-flight failure roughly 4 minutes after its historic launch. The company said in a tweet it experienced a “rapid unscheduled disassembly,” indicating the rocket was destroyed. As a reminder, no crew were on board.

The phrase "rapid unscheduled disassembly" is par for the course for Elon Musk. He appears to enjoy making light of things. I find it hilarious.

I'm pretty sure the SCOTUS would rule that law unconstitutional.

A lot of states are passing these kinds of bills now.  Then they work their way through the courts.

One of my issues is they won't reduce gun crime perceptibly and folks  will want more.

SpaceX Starship orbital launch live updates (cnbc.com)

It exploded midflight.  Hopefully they can learn from that and fix it.
That was the entire point.  They only expected it to clear the gantry, everything beyond that was gravy, and although the Rapid Disassembly might have been Unscheduled, none of their engineers seriously believed that test flight was going to end up in any way OTHER than an intentional detonation over the ocean.

This is an extremely ambitious program, and today's test represents a major success.

Plus, we got to watch Texas rednecks on pontoon boats in the bay, cheer the launch and eventual detonation of the rocket.  Just pure entertainment all the way around.
