      Starship will not be successful in beating China back to the moon. It’s been a money pit for the US taxpayers with very little to show for it. SpaceX is years behind Musk’s promised timeline.

      Some welds didn’t hold and it went pop during a pressure test. No biggie, that’s what quality testing is for. Learn from it and fabricate another.

      Test article for new construction highlights a problem in design or build. No surprises here.

      Hands up everyone who expected a SpaceX test article to pass on the first attempt. No? Good, because that’s not how SpaceX does things. They do what they consider to be „enough“ design on paper, then answer questions by building physical items and watching how they fail.

      Just a reminder, it was SpaceX testing of Dragon’s parachute system that highlighted problems with NASA’s modelling of parachutes.

      And please no nonsense about „tax dollars“ since there are no tax dollars being spent on Starship launch system development. There is NASA money being spent on Starship HLS, which is modifications to Starship required to ferry crew to the Moon and not development of the base vehicle.

      I’m not entirely unconvinced there is not a corrolation between the moral of the people at SpaceX with everything going on with Musk and the quality of his spacecrafts.

      Paid for by your tax dollars, but don’t worry any profits will be privatized.

      Did they look around for it? You always start with the last place you saw it.

      why do I have the feeling that SpaceX and Elon are taking BO’s success of New Glenn personally?

      That’s not good for business. It’s going to lead to mistakes if it hasn’t alread… oh wait.

      Looks like it just popped this time rather than a big fireball like the last one… woulda sucked after having just rebuilt the site ! 😆
