That’s a pretty low-quality article. They couldn’t even get the location right, despite quoting a tweet from NSF with the correct location.
SpaceX has yet to provide an update on the explosion, which took place at its Boca Chica Starbase facilities in southern Texas.
NASASpaceflight wrote, “The raptor testing stand at McGregor experienced an anomaly a few moments ago."
If the author can’t tell the difference between SpaceX’s Boca Chica and McGregor facilities, I’m not sure they should can be trusted to report on the situation accurately.
One of the purposes of the engine test stands at McGregor is to push the engines to the limit and see what happens, so that such failures don’t occur at Boca Chica.
Ah, denial, the ultimate power of a Musk fan. Why is it so hard for you people to accept anything that guy does is not best of the best? Everyone makes mistakes. Half of the problem Tesla has is not admitting they have problems be it shitty “full self driving” or panel alignment and others. Musk says no water is needed for Starship launch, all of the cult praises him for clairvoyance, launch demolishes their launch pad and nature’s reserve surrounding it. And people forget about it or claim that’s the way it’s suppose to be.
This approach of yours tells me no one can have a rational and productive conversation with you unless it’s in a praise of Musk. Sure, they got the location wrong. Does that mean engine didn’t blow up? Mr. “pretty confident next year”™ is unable to get things right with insider information only he has access to. Here’s another source. So what now? Do we still deny?
They do have issues. It’s just Musk saying that’s what we wanted and everyone believes him.
I don’t listen to that Musk has to say about the SpaceX issues.
I’d rather listen to the actual engineers working on the missions.
Well reality of the situation is that they had so many issues lately. Be it because of Musk’s stupidity or just regular old cockiness
Where are these issues reported?
I’ve only heard about Boeing’s as of lately.
But maybe that’s because of the hivemind.
I read it on the news. Engine exploded recently. Starship’s launch was riddled with malfunctions, etc.
Can you link one article reporting an engine malfunction? Everything I find is about a successful test flight. But then I spent 30 seconds.
Sure.
Thanks! That video was wild.
No problem. Indeed fireball was quite the sight.
