A SpaceX rocket launch went wrong yesterday, but what exactly happened? Well the 'Starship' spacecraft is the largest rocket ever created. It spun out of control not long after the launch and exploded. No one was injured but there was a lot of falling debris as bits of the rocket fell back down to the ground. This is the second failed launch in a row after an earlier try in January.
