A flourishing new business is emerging on the Internet involving the resale of tiles from the heat shield of SpaceX's Starship launcher, several models of which have exploded after lift-off. The tiles are reportedly selling for several thousand dollars.
While the first two Starship launches resulted in explosions occurring moments after lift-off, the third was able to fly around the globe. However, the rocket disintegrated as it re-entered the atmosphere over the ocean. Surprising as it may seem, some people in the US have gone in search of the debris and are selling it online, via the eBay auction platform.
