So one of Elon Musks Space X rockets blew up a couple days ago. Space X described it as a "rapid unscheduled dissasemblly". When I heard that I couldn't stop laughing. Any of you guys witness or cause any rapid unscheduled dissasemblies?

It was test flight

They purposely removed heat shield tiles to see what would happen,,,,among other things

The main stage landed on the pad as planned

It was even carrying mock satellites, not real ones. They are experimenting with tolerances, to improve future rockets. Some of the experiments aren't going to go well, but are very valuable for the knowledge gained.

Very similar to my favorite phrase: "I didn't break it, I was simply present at the point of failure."

Congrats to Musk for testing to failure. Wish automotive companies would do that.

New phrases, I guess. They no longer euthanize a flock of chickens. They depopulate it.

Been there, done that. I've used a shovel more than once to retrieve an engine after "landing".

Any landing you walk away from is a success!

"Rapid unscheduled disassembly" sounds like one of Eugene's explanations off of "The Walking Dead", lol.

Yes, the husband backed into the garage door while it was down, rapid disassembly occurred alright. Every panel came down.
