  "account": "SpaceX's Starship Flight 15 successfully reached orbit on Saturday, November 13, marking the second time the company has achieved this feat. The upper stage, Starship, was deployed carrying 26 new Starlink satellites. However, the lower half, a Super Heavy booster, experienced a diversion into the Gulf of Mexico after a clean separation, bursting into flames. Despite this setback, the mission is still considered a significant step toward SpaceX's goal of a fully reusable heavy lift rocket. A successful catch attempt scheduled for tomorrow would be a major milestone, potentially driving down the cost of space launches and expanding SpaceX's services significantly.",
