Man I'm starting to fall behind on Manley's videos! Going to fix that now, thanks for the prompt.
Wow pretty cool, wonder how that impacts certification. I am guessing there are multiple categories that a rocket system needs to pass checks in order to pass, so maybe they have a contingency for such cases.
Yeah, if I were the USSF, I'm not sure I would be comfortable putting a billion-dollar spy satellite atop Vulcan just yet. I'd probably want a bit more investigation into the GEM 63XL SRBs before giving them the stamp of approval.
Back fell off
Is that supposed to happen?
That's not very typical, no.
I mean, "the back fell off" is kind of the entire concept of rocket stages, so in a way, it is typical. They usually have to fall off in the correct sequence, at the correct time, and in one piece though.
it had some of failure but it made it up anyways
