What would a regularly-paced scheduled disassembly look like?
- Tade0 4y agoThe type you do to examine wear after a successful landing.

- koliber 4y agoI did not know! Thank you.
- mauvehaus 4y agoThere'd probably be more wrenches and less fire involved for one thing. In the near-term it would also likely be done on the ground.
- weberer 4y agoRUD is more of a joke term than doublespeak. Like FUBAR and SNAFU.
- plasticchris 4y agoHard ocean landing was the scheduled disassembly
- tekla 4y agoNot double speak. Just terms you are not familiar with.
- tzs 4y agoWas it an unscheduled disassembly? From the video it looks like the stages failed to separate and the rocket started tumbling. I'd expect the range safety officer to trigger the self-destruct at that point which would make the explosion newly scheduled rather than unscheduled.
