No thread on SpaceX scrubbing their mission? Major L
- Thread starter 88m3
- Start date
we clowned my cousin in group chat cause he was hype for this 
. but im looking forward to its eventual success. i prefer spending money on space exploration and travel rather than bombs and bullets

No thread in HL. There's one in TLR.

It was storming hard as fukk from far east Orange county all the way to Sebastian. Granted it was on and off but when you live by the coast you never know if the storms just gonna blow by fast or mot. They likely want perfect conditions for this launch and I don't blame them
Unless they scrubbed for some other reason I dunno about. Them storms today were no joke though, got me thinking about how hurricane season is gonna work with corona

Didn't they postpone due to weather? If so how is that an L? NASA learned that the hard way from the space shuttle challenger disaster

As already said, NASA doesn't want another Challenger.
When Challenger happened, NASA was in a rush to put Christa McAuliffe in space because of the much hyped Teacher-In-Space contest. The launch though was pushed back from it's initial date a couple of times from a previous launch, and some glitches.
Then on the morning of the launch, it was around 30F. This little bit of change killed all 7 people, because in the boosters they had rubber o-rings that would swell on takeoff. But it had never been cleared for 30F, because what the commons sense was... if the o-rings WERE too cold, they wouldn't stop the gasses from escaping... which doomed the flight.
Around 70 seconds into the flight, all the hot gas started to burn a hole in the adjacent fuel tank. While the Challenger didn't explode into a fireball, the orbiter was ripped apart from the destruction of the tank's gasses finding a weakpoint and destroying it's tank.
Rockets are full of complex shyt, and one error; with Challenger and Columbia, can cause failure quickly because they are fragile.
