    The ship can burn while standing still so I guess it passed the test. Great success!

    So how much carbon emissions did this release?

      Not much more than if the test was successful. The fuel would have burned either way.

        Much less than if it had actually launched. It burns on the ground, when it blows up in the sky its just pollution. Not to mention all the “venting” that happens during engine relights and coast periods which just means dumping methane and oxygen.

        I guess if the rocket hadn’t disassembled itself, then it could be used again.
        I think static fire is part of the testing to proceed to a launch? So, now they have to build another and static fire that as well in order to get back to where they should be.

        That’s not necessarily true, rockets Cary there own oxygen, pure Oxygen can burn hot enough and oxidize enough to burn nontraditional things like steel and concrete, it would also vaporize toxic heavy metals and exotic foreign materials from the rocket itself.

    Why does this video repeat the same shit twice? Just let it play past the end and (my client at least) just starts replaying it anyways, so what’s the point in sticking a repetition into the file itself? I hope the compression at least results in it not using much more space for the 2nd copy.

      I believe SpaceX is funded by taxes.

      Upon further research SpaceX is funded by mixed sources, personal, private and government.
