let me talk about SpaceX and rockets for a second
because while I don't give a flying fuck about musk
yesterday's (20/04/2023) launch was a succes. The point was to get it in the air, anything more was extra. It was a test flight. Every rocket goes through this process.
SpaceX is not bad at making rockets, there are a lot of very skilled scientists involved and rockets are constantly being reused etc. technology has been rapidly improving this field.
This is new technology and it is being tested. As I have said before, this happens and has happened for every rocket. With NASA, with Rocketlab with SpaceX, any company you can think of.
The scientists now have a lot of data they can use to improve the rocket where things went wrong.
This was a test flight, nothing was on board, this is a testing phase and this is new development. This was the first time that the full stack was tested in flight. I am speaking for the scientists here because they are the actual key to this. They've (scientists in this field in general) made some incredible forward steps in the last years.
It's probable that the explosion was planned to some extent and likely that it was absolutely expected to happen.
Yes you can laugh at the explosion, yes it looks hilarious I can appreciate the memes a lot please continue.
But do realise that this did not go wrong and this is a positive for the scientists that work on it.

Space X engine test failure end up being one of the loudest booms in US history. It not only blew out glass miles away but it set off dozens of car alarms over 5 miles away.

Well done Elon. I'm sure this was a great finding that couldn’t have been discovered any other way. Totally worth the hundreds of hours of work and billions of dollars spent on the development of your biggest toy thats now at the bottom of the ocean.
Well atleast we now know how Super Heavy+Star Ship flies with engines that got damaged during launch.

Awesome slowmo sped up 8x remix of spaceX and NO! The thing that is caught zooming above the cameras is NOT a UAP/UFO. Remember what we said, video is sped up slow MO remix at 8x.
