Yeah still though this is probably going to be a two month at minimum halt.


SpaceX's system engineering approach allows them to navigate in and out of issues and design changes so rapidly.

Just an impressive way of rocketry.

I’m dumb where do you see fire in that video?

You would think they would know rather than saying it was presumed lost

Well, now the FAA is going to have a field day with this one. I said that last time and was wrong, hopefully this time too.

I do believe this will open a FAA mishap investigation... this was outside flight parameters I believe
