Ozicell (OP) User ID: 77537402 Australia 05/02/2019 08:52 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | So what was the cause of the explosion? Jeff Foust, senior writer at SpaceNews, tweeted earlier today that Koenigsmann stated the “vehicle was destroyed” — but before the vehicle’s thrusters ignited. That suggests the “anomaly” arose not because of the Crew Dragon’s eight emergency thrusters. “We have no reason to believe that there is an issue with the SuperDraco systems themselves,” Koenigsmann confirmed at today’s press event. That which is - has already been, And what is to be - has already been. Quote: King Solomon. |

They test these things to the breaking point on the ground so it doesn't happen after launch. With each failure, a fault is found which leads to improving the system! That which is - has already been, And what is to be - has already been. Quote: King Solomon. |

As far as the video is concerned, it was done with a cell phone camera by an employee who uploaded it without permission! That's why it looks the way it does - it's not an officially released video but SpaceX has finally admitted that it is real! That which is - has already been, And what is to be - has already been.
