Elon Musk's SpaceX postponed the 10th launch of its Starship rocket due to cloudy weather in Texas on Monday, another slight delay in its efforts to overcome development setbacks and achieve several long-sought milestones essential to the Mars rocket system's reusable design.

SpaceX delayed a planned test flight for its Starship megarocket by 24 hours until Monday, saying it needed time to troubleshoot problems, in the latest setback for Elon Musk's behemoth after a series of explosive failures.

Tesla billionaire Elon Musk was mocked after his latest SpaceX Starship launch failed within 40 seconds. The failed test marked the 10th instance of Musk's company's inability to get the spacecraft beyond Earth's atmosphere.
