ELON Musk's mega-rocket finally made it into space yesterday but contact was lost as it headed back to Earth.

The Tesla tycoon's company SpaceX hailed the test launch as a success after two previous lift-offs ended in disaster.

The colossal 397ft Starship had been due to splash down in the Indian Ocean around an hour after launch.

SpaceX's Dan Huot said: "The ship has been lost. So no splashdown today.

"But again, it's incredible to see how much further we got this time around." Two test flights last year both ended in explosions just minutes after launch.
