The much-anticipated test flight of SpaceX's fully integrated Starship and Super Heavy rocket (the previous attempt on Monday, April 17th was scrubbed due to a frozen valve) launched for the first time on April 20, 2023.

The test flight successfully launched but failed to separate and ended with Rapid Unplanned Disassembly (RUD) a few minutes into the flight. This was the 'World's Most Powerful Rocket' whose testing resulted in a 3 Billion Dollar explosion.
