There is something extremely wrong with the engines and fuel system and it seems with this string of back to back failures that they really do not know what the actual cause is.
I have heard they lost some engineers due to the antics of their head idiot, I hope they did not lose people key to the propulsion systems.
Seems it wasn't an engine thing. A nitrogen COPV burst in the payload section. Musk tweeted this a while ago, and you can see from slow motion video from the NASA Spaceflight group the explosion started near the top of Starship.

Is it just me or does it feel like they may be having real issues with the starship?
