SpaceX suffers an accident during ground test of Crew Dragon astronaut capsuleThe anomaly happened during part of a static fire test of the Crew Dragon’s SuperDraco engines at Florida’s Cape Canaveral Air Force Station. The SuperDraco engines power the capsule’s launch abort system. I’m sure this “accident” contributed to the death of more marine life in a few hours than democrat hoax global warming has in the past 10 decades. “Suffers accident”? What a deliberately misleading tweet headline. No one was hurt. Is the author claiming a piece of hardware suffered? Disgraceful clickbait.
