You weren't kidding about the pea soup fog, wow. Hope this launch goes well for them. And thought struggles against the results, trying to avoid those unpleasant results while keeping on with that way of thinking. That is what I call 'sustained incoherence.' ...David Bohm “How, O Zenobia, hast thou dared to insult Roman emperors?” ...Aurelian, 44th Emperor of the Roman Empire |

That's why debris is raining down all around the landing site. Everyday Astronaut may have just lost $20,000 worth of cameras. |

Quoting: Astromut Since the camera went out right as the engine relight was happening, my money is on something bad happening with the engines themselves. I think they had a RUD caused by an engine during the landing relight. |

User ID: 79448974 Puerto Rico 03/30/2021 10:54 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | SpaceX seems to be on track for a test flight today, but it is very foggy down at Boca Chica. They are set to go live in a few minutes, but as this is a prototype vehicle delays are likely and a fully successful landing is not guaranteed. the ship design is "faulty" it will burn and crash or crash and burn again ..... Elon has not hired me ... so screw him and his ship ! Are we screwd ! ~~~~ |

User ID: 77351427 Switzerland 03/30/2021 11:07 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Poor old Tim Dodd looked a bit distressed about his cameras, quite a few grands worth. Very dramatic show for him, though. Particularly the part where he's waiting for the shock wave from the detonation to roll in. I wonder what the problem was this time? They've got everything else down-pat but the landing. "Jesus Christ, they've done it. They've done it." - Bob-"Threads" ------------------------------------- |

I'm sure they'll figure it out, they already have the next one built and ready to try again. |
