In May, it is time for the fourth launch of the Space X giant rocket Starship, the spacecraft that the American space company intends to take people to the moon and eventually to Mars with, CEO and founder Elon Musk announces at X.

The postponement in May will be the fourth.

The first two times the craft exploded during launch. The third, which took place in mid-March, was more successful. Then the Starship took off into space but burned up during re-entry into Earth’s atmosphere.
