Interesting that nothing is said about why two scrubs occurred. SpaceX seems to have been forthcoming with details about anomalous flights in the past like Amos 6 and CRS-7, but I haven't found anything that gives an explanation for why the first two launch attempts didn't succeed.
- crush-n-spread 9y agoThey were forthcoming in both Sunday and Monday's webcasts of the failed launch. In both cases, it was a data anomoly 10s from launch
- ChuckMcM 9y agoWhich is to say at t-10 seconds when its pretty simple and routine to scrub, they do a massive comparison of sensor data and system status versus expected data and expected status. If that fails for any reason they scrub. It takes them a while to go through all of the data to figure out what data caused the scrub and then a while longer to figure out what caused the data to be "wrong".
- thatcherc 9y agoMy question though is what was that data anomaly? Also was it the same thing both times? Just curious really.
- jonmagic 9y agoSee https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SPepP_1qr8g https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SPepP_1qr8g for an explanation for Monday's scrub. Fairly certain Monday's webcast had an explanation for the previous attempt as well.
