    It was never a matter of "IF" only "when". Everything can go wrong at any time. It speaks to the engineers and workers that it took this long for an issue to come up. A minor hiccup that will happen to every company.

      @David-yo5ws 24 дня назад +3

      Well let's hope it is minor. Look at Rocket Lab's second stage failure after 30 flights. The arcing of a power supply unit that took them weeks to find the reason and it could only happen in space. They had to make a test instrument that had never been built before. (Mind you, they are the only Rocket Company that uses batteries to drive the turbine pumps) but nonetheless, it highlighted an issue where on Earth you might get a high voltage arc of a millimeter, but in space it can arc 100X that.
      But I do hope it's a process issue (human error) than say a pressure tank with metal construction failure. Delaying a launch company that does 95% of the commercial launch's, is kinda like shutting off the power grid to Industrial Plants. 🤞🏼

    Looks like my comment from my other channel was auto filtered out for length. I was talking about how I think we're underestimating the difficulty of solving this diagnostics problem because of how different the F9 program is compared to what we're used to, the Starship program. Also because of the human rating issue. Diagnostics on an experimental prototype are way easier than on an operational human-rated vehicle. On Starship you're allowed to diagnose incorrectly. In Falcon, you're not allowed to diagnose incorrectly. You're not allowed to EVER have that engine blow up with humans on board, EVER.

That's when we assume nothing can go wrong any more. Then something - Great or Minor - does go wrong. A human at SpaceX overlooked something obvious and BOOM. It was destiny - as sucess ALWAYS generates complacency.

    I don’t see what the issue is. The Dragon has its own escape system should the second stage do anything wrong. The carry rate of this rockets both 1ST and 2nd stages has been 100% until now and fail to see the point of even putting launches under duress. It does not effect Polaris nor the 5th launch. & as stated their launch cadence is far higher than everyone. Face it the engine kept doing its thing and it merely looks like a lot more fuel is being ejected,to freeze over in that manner Frankly I believe that would never happen again and that it would take another flight to prove it. I don’t see that there’s a reason to Ground.
