SpaceX launched the eighth test flight of Starship, the biggest and most powerful rocket ever built, from its Starbase site in South Texas on Thursday evening (March 6). Starship's huge first-stage booster, known as Super Heavy, came back to Starbase for a launch-tower catch about seven minutes after liftoff as planned.

Perhaps the revamped iPhone SE could see improved sales from emerging markets like India and Indonesia, I would not bet on it.
