Description
Hundreds of curious and space travel enthusiasts gather early in the morning in Boca del Rio, Playa Bagdad, Matamoros, where the river divides Mexico from the United States, to get a front-row seat to watch the scheduled launch of Space X's Starship.
SpaceX on November 18, 2023, carried out the second test launch of Starship, the largest rocket ever built that Elon Musk hopes will one day colonize Mars, while NASA awaits a modified version to land humans on the Moon. It comes after a first attempt to fly the spaceship in its fully-stacked configuration back in April ended in a spectacular explosion over the Gulf of Mexico. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
