On Wednesday night, at the CT around 11pm, Space X was scheduled to conduct a steady fire test of the ship 36 before the 10th flight test planned for its starch, when suddenly Messi’s testing center site suddenly exploded. “The vicious area around the site was maintained in the entire operation and all personnel are safe and accountable,” and that the recently recent city Starbase, Texas area, is not a threat to residents.
According to a updated on SpaceX’s website, “after completing the static fire of the same engine earlier this week, the vehicle was in the process of loading the crewsenic property for the static fire of six engines when suddenly a sudden incident resulted in the starship around the stand and immediately damaged the area.” “The blast caused a number of fires on the test site, which is clear from the personnel and will be estimated that once it will be resolved to be safe to contact it. People should not try to approach the area while continuing the operation.”
The explosion took place earlier this year after the explosion during the seventh, eighth, and ninth starch during flight tests. “The preliminary analysis indicates the potential failure of the pressure tank, known as COPV, or composite over -wrapped pressure vessel, which contains gas nitrogen in the nosox area of the starch, but a thorough review of the data,” says Space X. On X, the company called the blast “major irregularities”.
Fox 26 Houston says, according to officials, no injuries were reported. SpaceX also says no one was reported injured.
In this flight test, the use of Space X’s “V2” starchy design continues, which Musk said in 2023, “Keeps more property, reduces dry mass and improves reliability.” Space X is also producing a new V3 design that, according to Musk, was moving toward the launch rate once a week, about 12 months.
Update, June 19: Information from Space X was added.
