It’s perfect it’s ready, bezos get on the rocket
It’s so fucking efficient when several companies all make the same mistakes trying to do a thing nation states did 70 years ago. Thank you capitalist innovation! What would we do without you?!
Blew OriginThe explosion occurred during a “hotfire test”, the company said, describing the incident as an “anomaly”.
The corpospeak equivalent of an employee shrugging and saying “Huh, that’s weird”
Gonna steal that for when I’m at work
Hear me out, I’ve played a lot of KSP, and rockets sometimes just do that.
Who amongst us has not made a rocket where engine 5 and only engine 5 explodes 48 seconds into launch every time for no apparent reason?
They just fucked up the staging. Classic mistake
is it usposed to do that?
If your craft becomes instantly gaseous, you have the best thrust-to-weight ratio. It’s just science.

You’ve heard of a gas core rocket, but have you heard of a gas payload rocket?
Most efficient way to leave the launch pad, actually.
leave it in ruins

recoup some of the losses by selling the footage to christopher nolan. “spectacular” is the only word that comes to mind lmao

Seventy years ago we had to have a chimp pull the wrong switch on liftoff to get these kind of fireworks and it cost us a whole-ass chimp. Now with robots we can blow them up and save on the chimpanzee budget.
its reusable booster
Fauci said boosters were safe! 
Neat
i’m sure that’s great for the surrounding environment
Think of how many jobs that’s gonna create though!
