I'm not sure what argument you're trying to make, on the one hand you say the explosion looked like a controlled detonation, on the other that it seems unplanned.
Like others have pointed out: as far as F9 was concerned, the test ended when Dragon detached. Whatever happened after that point is immaterial to the test, so to start saying that would require a reflight is nonsense.
- soheil 7y agoThe plan was an explosion due to free-fall and atmospheric forces. The plan was not for an explosion due to a controlled detonation. I hope you are able to delineate between the two and not do a cursory reading of my comment again. > so to start saying that would require a reflight is nonsense I said "most likely" and "if you want to be safe enough" I'm not sure why you assumed I meant "require"
- lutorm 7y agoBecause you also said "... or they will let it be as is which would be unsafe?" I think your reception here would be better if you dropped the attitude and recognized that your comment used pure speculation to imply that the outcome of the test was negative. Maybe that was not your intent, but then you should have asked more open-ended questions rather than slant them so obviously negatively.
- JshWright 7y ago> The plan was not for an explosion due to a controlled detonation. What evidence do you have that it was a "controlled detonation"? Seems like you're making baseless assumptions and then getting upset when people don't understand what you're trying to say.
