Trudeau was almost in tears yesterday in his anger at the way Trump was treating his country. Canadians are determined to stop buying American products.

Elon Musk claims he was the perfect person to make government cuts thanks to his business experience, and, sure enough, just like Space X, everything's imploding.

They weakened the heat shield and structure to test how the system would perform under maximal stress.
In essence; they deliberately blew it up in order to capture more data.
I thought you were supposed to be an engineer?
Well they would say that wouldn't they? You obviously need a humour transplant. They need a course in NDT.

You don't have any lessons at school today?
They were talking about it in advance of the launch. Seems like you’re pretending to have a clue about something you have no idea about here and trying to pass it off as a joke because you were wrong

How stupid can you be?
Country is broke. Nothing works. So they waste however many millions on stupid schemes like this.
The country is well and truly screwed with these morons at the helm.
How is that a stupid scheme? Dental hygiene is becoming a bigger and bigger problem and it's becoming harder and harder to find an NHS dentist. I'm no fan of Starmer but I approve of this scheme. They do need to look at adults as well as children though.
Sadly we are in a UK where people are becoming so lacking in basic skills that children are arriving at school wearing nappies, not knowing how to use a spoon and being unable to get dressed for PE on their own. The fact they don’t also know how to brush their teeth is no surprise.
Yes I am an engineer highly qualified and experienced and they didn't weakened the heat shield and structure no engineering team would deliberately set out to cause or even risk such an incident which had the FAA halting air traffic in parts of Florida and debris falling on the Bahamas. Saying they deliberately blew it up in order to capture more data is absolute bollocks, the sort of **** you get on the social media disgraces you appear to swear by.
This was the mission scope - "Starship was aiming to make nearly a full orbit around Earth and re-enter over the Indian Ocean for a splashdown, simulating a landing sequence that SpaceX wants to soon carry out on land as a key next phase of the rocket's development."
The FAA, which regulates private rocket launches, said its investigation would require SpaceX to examine the failure's cause and get the agency's sign-off before Starship can fly again effectively grounding it.
Really? I think not, feel free to post the discussion. By the way HIGNFY is a satirical show you may not realise that so I'll have the last laugh.
All of what you just said is wrong because they literally expected there to be problems because they did exactly what I said.
Nice try though.
Their approach has always been to capture data, analyse and then keep building. It’s how they iterate and innovate so quickly. Enabling things like this:

New generations of rockets built extremely quickly compared to traditional space companies.
The speed of innovation at SpaceX is breathtaking. Even if you hate Elon, you must be be to agree with that?
