MSNBC's Rachel Maddow lambasted Elon Musk Thursday night, following the explosion of the latter's latest SpaceX Starship rocket.
The NASA astronauts stranded aboard the ISS said they received "no information" about Elon Musk's supposed plans to rescue them sooner.
SpaceX has blown up another Starship mega rocket on a test flight. Nearly two months after an explosion sent flaming debris raining down on the Turks and Caicos, SpaceX launched another mammoth Starship rocket on Thursday, but lost contact minutes into the test flight as the spacecraft came tumbling down and broke apart.
Elon Musk said in a post on X that US President Donald Trump ‘asked to bring them back as soon as possible, and we are doing so.’
President Donald Trump said that he asked "a favor" of Elon Musk to retrieve astronauts on the ISS. The plan to bring them back has been in place since September.
