That's a good looking render, almost real
Apparently people saw the light of the explosion from Orlando.
obviously a major malfunction.
>>16989209Nah, looks pretty minor to me. They can buff it out, when they find where it landed.
>>16989162Elon and Drumpfh actually fired missiles at it and made it happen
lol
>>16989221Drumpfh fired Elon. More like one of his jeets.
They can't keep getting away with it
>>16989209that blew up even better than the spacex deathtrap
lmaor u ok jeff?
imagine this happening to a moonbase resupply
Karma for Amazon employing Eric Kripke
>>16989209>>16989215Catastrophic. Worst failure in literal decades. Embarrassingly, NASA said just *yesterday* that they chose New Glenn for the upcoming moonbase missions. Welp not fucking anymore lol.Plus it's not just the rocket itself but the entire pad and infrastructure all around it is majorly fucked. One of the lightning towers may not be salvageable, and that the transporter-erector may also be damaged beyond repair. You can even see in the video that one of the towers was completely annihilated lmao
>>16989162Why do we let a bunch of billionaire pedophiles play with rockets instead of NASA? What are we on now, the 20th starship failure in a row? the third exploded bezos p.o.s. in as many years?
>>16989162https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CQeezCdF4mk
We now speed running through our rare fuel supplies?
>>16989162Was Katy Perry on board? Please tell me Katy Perry was on board...
>>16989209Elon has the excuse of having to land rockets. Imagine people still manage to blow up traditional rockets in current year.
>>16989409The government paying government employees to do things is communism, the only patriotic option is to give government money to private business that pays employees, executives and share holders.
>>16989209the sparks at the end and how they get sucked into the low pressure caused by the rising air column is kewl
Its Joever
>>16989468It's methane and oxygen
>1/8th of Hiroshima explosion>NASA an hour after: "We might have noticed an anomaly, more on that later"
>>16989554There has been an anomaly. It is nothing to worry about.
>>16989162That's fantastic newsThey must have gathered so much data
>>16989162>elon wins>version 3 which was going to fix the problems of version 2 but it has new issues stemming from problems from version 1 but don't worry version 4 fixes this!
>>16989175I wonder how far away the explosion was heard
I wish every single gay fucking rocket on earth would explode like this fuck you
>>16989605What about straight rockets
>>16989609They can go do one and all
>>16989601At least 200 km away
Don't worry guys, with every failure is a lesson! This just means we are definitely on schedule and the deadline is tracking for all of our wild goals for the next 2 years, Saarshit and Blowup Moon are definitely going to be landing on the Moon next year!!!!! You lost tranny
Why is no one posting the superior angle
World's biggest firecracker
>>16989409private sector can move faster with fewer restrictions, they get to do all the "grunt" work while NASA can focus on more specialized endeavors or experiments and use the kind of resources available when you're in government
>>16989209ooooooohhhh kino
>>16989474Source tells me Katy is completely vaporized. Please god
>>16989209Based.But if I did this I'd get in trouble. Bullshit.
>>16989670Her massive front payloads absorbed most of the impact fortunately
>>16989394There's a good possibility that the other booster in the HIF building is also damaged by the blast and if the BE4 engines are somehow related, it will affect ULA's Vulcan rocket too.Catastrophic indeed.
>>16989394Why can't they make pads that don't get hurt by explosions?
>>16989394>transporter-erectorIn Iran they blew up thousands of them and Iran still churns them out. Nobody should pretend this is critical rocket science.
>>16989490Jews rule
>>16989605Its a good thing they dont make gay fucking rockets, just the normal fucking kind.
The timing is so bad. This makes me wanna puke. Aaaaaaa
I'm betting this was bigger than the N1 explosion of 1969. Congrats USA
I mean, it's bad enough that all of the customers will be set back a ton (especially after this crazy month of space stock rallies, many of which were booked with BO) but Artemis will likely be pushed back by a year or more now.I'm sure that SpaceX will likely take whatever customers they can from them, assuming their payloads will even fit in their fairings...but a lot of them are likely fucked. NASA included.You think this is sabotage? Think about it:SpaceX announces IPO, then has a (90%) successful Starship v3 flight later that week. Then Blue Origin's New Glenn magically blows up the week after, two weeks before SpaceX's IPO date.Coincidence? It certainly SEEMS a little suspicious.
>>16989851I literally couldn't believe that ASTS was meant to be first on-board. I've just finally hit 100% gains on it and was expecting it to keep shooting upwards.Hell, practically all space stocks were booming this last few weeks before today. Now that rally is dead I guess.My bet? Put the biggest gainers on a list and organize it by payload weight. The top will be whoever has the highest gains in stock this YTD and has the largest payload that can still fit in Falcon9's fairing. Then put all those fuckers on a news feed. The moment they secure a SpaceX delivery contract, buy buy buy.
>>16989276>elon taking a page outta ULAs book and hiring his own sniper sorry jeff I need that 2 trillion
>>16989856It was revenge for AMOS-6
>>16989651>every failure is a lessonIts a learning experience, we don't use the F-word here>Jeff: FFFUUUUUUUUUUU
>>16989162When the spinning ball-Earth is finally exposed worldwide for the 400+ year deception it was, Earth's entire population will suddenly be faced with the reality that every government, every space agency, university, secret society, religious organization, mainstream and alternative media outlet have ALL been duplicitous in propping up a monstrous manipulation to fleece and control the masses. The resulting mass mental exodus away from the control system is exactly what humanity needs. Once the flat Earth truth gets out, these lying politicians, spokesmen, reporters and teachers suddenly change from being heralded voices of authority to being ridiculed, shunned and denounced as they deserve. Once the flat Earth truth gets out, these governments, universities, media outlets and other entangled organizations which have long been hard at work weaving this multi-generational ball-Earth myth, suddenly and completely lose all credibility. Once the truth of our flat Earth gets out, so does the truth of these few elite families/societies who have kept this most important and fundamental reality from us for these hundreds of years! Essentially, once the flat Earth truth gets out, so does every other important truth by proxy, because this "mother-of-all-conspiracies" holds under its umbrella literally ALL of the other conspiracies, and exposes them.
>>16989394Ouch!
>>16989943sloppa
>>16989394Pretty suspicious if you ask me
>>16989943> AI slop from some chinkOk.
>>16989943>Borrow a launch pad from SpaceXSpaceX pads are not designed to launch the New Glenn rocket.
>>16989943>No backup vehicleThis is not true. There is another rocket in the assembly building. However, it was likely damaged by the pressure wave. In any case, it doesn't matter because the only pad on which it could launch is going to take a year to rebuild.
>>16989943the airplane vid is pretty wicked to see. as the explosion abates you can watch as the entire illuminated area goes pitch black
>>16990135may I see it?
>>16989943>some chink replying with obvious bot generated ccp garbage
Considering the payloads of spacex, sls, and blue origin it's fucking insane to think the Saturn V could have just been iterated on with modernizing updates every 20 years and be far ahead of all of them.
>>16990433They don't build em like they used to.
>>16990433>could have just been iterated onwith what production lines?
>>16989175>Apparently people saw the light of the explosion from Orlando.Florida does be flat as fuck.
>>16989943Slop, especially considering that Kuiper satellites have already flown on Vulcan
>>16990433>Saturn VExpendable junk
>>16989409We aren’t on a starship failure at all, they’re testing prototypes, midwit.
>>16990630Mottecope
>>16989209BOOM! HAHAHAH
