Passenger planes had to reroute because of Starship debris falling off the ground

Several airplanes flying over the Atlantic Ocean, changed the route or suspended the flight because of the fall of debris from the Starship spacecraft of SpaceX. The publication Airlive writes about it on January 17.

"Several flights over the Atlantic, near the Turks and Caicos Islands, had to suspend or change the route because of falling debris from the Starship Flight 7 spacecraft of SpaceX", - said in the material.

Earlier in the day, SpaceX reported the loss of the Starship spacecraft during a test launch. Among the goals of the Starship flight were the return of the Super Heavy rocket booster to the launch pad, as well as a series of experiments with heat shielding and other.

SpaceX founder and American entrepreneur Ilon Musk said that the cause of the spacecraft's crash could have been an oxygen or fuel leak that reduced the capacity of the craft's vent.
