Overview

• Mexican environmental authorities, with naval and municipal support, secured a large cylindrical metallic object believed to be from SpaceX’s Starship Flight 11.
• Community teams from CONIBIO Global documented thousands of fragments, including black rubber-like pieces and white synthetic material consistent with thermal coating.
• Two dead dolphins were reported in the impact zone, and veterinary teams from the Universidad Autónoma de Tamaulipas collected samples from one for forensic analysis.
• CONIBIO Global warned that additional debris could reach more than 10 kilometers of coastline and alleged the Matamoros Port Captaincy declined to issue a navigational warning.
• Local groups say debris from previous Texas launches has reached Tamaulipas and are calling for investigations and clearer binational protocols for aerospace waste.
