Was this a functional anomaly of did the Ship veer off course and the FTS blew it? Build some, test some, build some more. This was a largely new design of the ship, so that could have caused the RUD. Just have to wait for analysis. Wonder if the FAA will demand a complete investigation? Certainly SpaceX wants to determine the cause.

I don't believe the FAA will play politics anymore with SpaceX.

So, is everyone still cheering this? One foul-up after another. Cancel the contracts and take the work back to NASA.

Glad I don’t live in their flight(?) path.
