Stark FAA extreme emergency warning after Elon Musk rocket explodes

A SpaceX test flight that exploded less than 10 minutes after launch in January apparently posed a serious threat to several passenger jets flying over the Caribbean, according to a Federal Aviation Administration investigation.

The launch occurred just days before CEO Elon Musk began work on Trump's Department of Government Efficiency, and an investigation was launched immediately. FAA documents released since disclose that the Starship's explosion endangered three passenger flights that evening.

The trio of planes, carrying a total of 450 passengers, landed safely after declaring fuel emergencies and traversing a temporary no-fly zone, according to the WSJ. Risks included debris from the explosion scattering across the Caribbean sky.
