Musk SpaceX Starship Experiences "Major Anomaly"

 

You may recall South Afrikaner fascist Elon "Leon" Musk providing fireworks for us in the form of exploding SpaceX rockets (here, here, and here, just this year alone).  Last night, there was yet another major anomaly "rapid unscheduled disassembly" of a Musk SpaceX vehicle, perhaps the most dramatic and debilitating one (for SpaceX) yet:

 

From CBS:

A SpaceX Starship upper stage exploded in a spectacular conflagration during ramp-up to an expected engine test firing at the company's Starbase manufacturing facility on the Texas Gulf Coast late Wednesday, destroying the rocket in what appears to be a major setback for the Super Heavy-Starship vehicle Elon Musk says is critical to the company's future.

Video from LabPadre, a company that monitors SpaceX activities at Starbase, showed the Starship suddenly exploding in a huge fireball just after 11 p.m. CDT, 10 to 15 minutes before the anticipated engine test firing, sending flaming debris shooting away into the overnight sky from a churning fireball that engulfed the test stand.

The explosion's impact on the test site infrastructure was not immediately known. SpaceX has a history of making relatively quick recoveries from failures or setbacks but this mishap, along with destroying a nearly-ready-to-launch Starship, may have caused significant damage to Starbase infrastructure. In any case, the next test flight will be indefinitely delayed.

Known as Ship 36, SpaceX was expected to launch the Starship atop a huge Super Heavy booster around the end of the month on the integrated rocket's tenth unpiloted test fight. Hotfire tests are a normal precursor to actual flights, allowing engineers to verify upgrades and overall performance prior to committing it to launch...

Talk about waste, DOGEbags!  This should give the retribution- minded Malignant Fascist and the legion of Musk- haters in his regime a perfect opportunity to scale back or scrap Musk's expensive, taxpayer- funded fireworks enterprise.
