And it works - I now have both "ORIGINAL" and "GRIFF" to put on my vehicles ...

It didn't go boom, but didn't flew either...

It went boom. Stage separation failed and the FTS systems activated.

It was a "rapid unscheduled disassembly"
You can't make this stuff up. Unless you work for SpaceX.

No, it was "deferred success".
(That, a few years ago, was what teachers in my area had to explain failed exam results as. Seriously.)

RUD (Rapid Unscheduled Disassembly) has long been an 'inside joke' term in the space industry. SpaceX didn't create the term, and is very far from the first to have it apply to their operations.

OT: You are embedded guru aren't you?
|
|

I wouldn't call myself a guru. I'm still trying to get my head around ARM development, and get outside the IoT/Arduino end of things.
I'm told I'm a fast learner though, and that's what's on my plate right now.
Still, I may be able to help with your question (I saw your post downthread) just because what I do intersects with embedded principles all the time.

Does that make it an "award winning rocket"?🙄

If nothing else, it was extremely successful in removing concrete and dispersing it widely...

I can’t say I have been in touch with everything taking place in the field but I haven’t heard of failed rocket launches for quite some time.
|

SpaceX certainly has them.
There was at least one other failure or sorts. Another country perhaps? They attempted to launch a satellite (spy?) and it failed to separate or failed to activate. Something like that.

but, but it's supposed to be simple rocket science !!

expectations of public vs the people who built it and what they actually testing for
I feel this from project dev, on agreeing months ago will release proof of concept for feedback and will only have X features.
then the first feedback is, "it doesn't do Y" 😒you approved that it wouldn't

Does anybody know how to reverse the curse? Typing this has been a nightmare.

The whole of Florida USA was woken up just after 4:00 AM this morning by the loud noise of an amber alert on their phones. It turns out the alert was "just a test"! A test that time of the morning!? They must either be very stupid or crazy!
Get me coffee and no one gets hurt!

THe UK government plan to force this on us soon. It's nice to know they have nothing important to work on.

3PM this Sunday for the test.
Hopefully slightly less chance of being woken up at that time!
