If you squint your eyes you can see the Starship debris fly past. #SpaceX #RUD

The #FAA said debris hit one vehicle on the ground in South Caicos Island after the Jan. 16 breakup. The rocket breakups in January and earlier this month caused 414 departure delays for aircraft and 80 diversions or holds for planes already aloft https://www.expressnews.com/business/article/spacex-starship-explosions-flights-delayed-costs-20221722.php

This excellent youtube video by a critical cybertruck owner goes over every major body panel which is glued on.

It's clearly possible to rip off some of these panels by hand.

Kinda surprised they haven't started walking off the trucks given how easy some of them come off.

Most panels appear to be easily pealed off part of the way.

#Starship #RUD : A preliminary analysis indicated a leak of oxygen and fuel and that the problem could be quickly fixed. “Nothing so far suggests pushing next launch past next month.”
The rocket had been stretched several feet taller than earlier Starships — space for bigger tanks that hold 25 percent more propellant . https://www.nytimes.com/2025/01/16/science/spacex-starship-test-launch-7.html

Engineers have identified a “very unusual” oxygen fire in a turbopump as the reason a rocket engine exploded during a test at the spaceport in Shetland earlier this week https://www.independent.co.uk/news/science/unst-shetland-b2601194.html

A #turbopump is spinning at thousands of rotations per minute (RPM) while pumping liquids into the engines and keeping a stable inlet pressure. When the inlet pressure suddenly drops, cavitation can occur. This is where bubbles start to form on the pump blades, which start damaging the blades, and when moving at thousands of RPM, this can quickly destroy a pump and lead to an explosion . To fix this, #SpaceX is redesigning the tank filtration https://www.nasaspaceflight.com/2024/02/mishap-investigation-flight-2-closed-spacex-tries-wdr/

@JoParkerBear you might be afflicted with #RUD, you know, rapid unscheduled disassembly.
