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.

SpaceX hoped to launch its Starship Flight 10 test mission on Sunday (Aug. 24) at 7:30 p.m. EDT (2330 GMT), but is now targeting Aug. 25.

SpaceX has been known for its risk-tolerant philosophy when it comes to Starship's development. Musk has stressed that rapid and frequent testing, which sometimes leads to explosive ends, can still provide data that helps engineers improve the vehicle's design.
