SpaceX Has Finally Figured Out Why Starship Exploded, And The Reason Is Utterly Embarrassing
Yeah, that’s not very typical. I’d like to make that point.
For the uninitiated: The front fell off
You mean, for the shaking to cause an explosion? #tffo
I was hoping the answer was "because musk wasn't inside" and the next one he needed to be in, but sure, it's built like a cyber truck is pretty embarrassing also
Oh wow, absolutely embarrassing! Even a 5 year old would know to check for vibrations in the fuel lines 🤦
It's not rocket scie- oh, nvm
But also, fuel leaks are really common with rockets, and we know how to prevent them from happening. The fuels rockets use can escape through the tiniest of faults, and the complex fuel systems they use have numerous potential points of failure. As such, it is standard practice to find these potential leaks with intensive pre-flight checks to identify and solve these issues before they escalate into a catastrophe.
It's pretty standard practice apparently, it IS embarrassing.
We are all rocket scientists on this blessed day
Oh my god, how embarrassing.
Something something Musk?
