Elon Musk Became Fixated on the Idea That a Sniper Shot His Rocket, Causing It to Explode
SpaceX CEO Elon Musk was convinced a "sniper" had caused a Falcon 9 rocket to explode violently on the launch pad on September 1, 2016. Footage of the event shows the rocket erupting into a gigantic ball of fire in an instant, reducing the mounted Amos-6 Israeli communications satellite into ashes. A Freedom of Inofrmation Act (FOIA) request filed with the Federal Aviation Administration by Ars Technica's Eric Berger around two years ago, has now revealed that SpaceX engineers had thoroughly investigated whether a projectile could've caused the rocket's helium tank to rupture and explode. According to Berger, Musk, who [...]
