Scott Manley | ~ SpaceX's Crew Dragon Capsule Destroyed In Engine Test ~ | Blogger: Cape Canaveral reported it had suffered “an anomaly”, like in 2016, when SpaceX’s Falcon 9 burst into flames on the Cape Canaveral launch pad and conspir- acy theorists claim aliens sabotaged SpaceX launch as bizarre theory says ‘anomaly’ flew over rocket that exploded... |



On April 20th SpaceX was performing an engine test on its recovered Dragon 2 capsule when an anomaly occurred. Large clouds of orange tinted smoke were seen for miles around the test site and sources have reported that the capsule can been destroyed. There's not much information to go on at this time, but it's likely that this will result in the commercial crew program being further delayed.
The story was first revealed by Emre Kelly writing in Florida Today, this is the source of the images showing the clouds of smoke. over the beaches: https://www.floridatoday.com/story/te... The amazing photos of the Raptor engine at 3:28 were taken by Jack Beyer, and I need to make it up to him. http://www.jackbeyer.com I apologize for rushing to publication and neglecting to properly credit these individuals and their work.
