Elon Musk’s space debris washes up in Tamaulipas

A reporter from Grupo Milenio noted that the Milenio newspaper published a report on Thursday about space debris that was found on Playa Bagdad, a beach in Tamaulipas just south of the border with Texas and the SpaceX Starbase rocket launch facility.

The Milenio article was published under the headline “Musk’s space debris places at risk the lives of animals and people in the north of Tamaulipas.”

In the article, Milenio reported that a metal tank was found on Playa Bagdad, adding that the device was “preliminarily identified” as a “pressurized tank with phosphorous remains.”

The newspaper said that the tank was part of the Super Heavy launch vehicle of the SpaceX Starship. SpaceX is majority-owned by Elon Musk, the company’s founder and CEO.
