What were the immediate consequences of the Starship launch failure?

SpaceX launched its Starship rocket on Thursday, but lost contact minutes after liftoff as the spacecraft tumbled out of control. The 403-foot rocket took off from Texas, and SpaceX recovered the first stage, but the spacecraft's engines failed during its eastward trajectory. The spacecraft, aiming for a controlled entry over the Indian Ocean, failed to release its dummy satellites.
