Summary

Description

How Not to Land an Orbital Rocket Booster: the incredible SpaceX Blooper Reel just came out.

On Aug 22, 2014, we were at the Texas facility and I filmed the final F9R test flight (the footage is part of the SpaceX post). We started the day with a fun DQ binger, and as we drove out to the launch site, I joked about the big bada boom to come. Not sure why. It was the first flight with three engines going, and a lot more fuel than prior flights. It arched over and something was clearly wrong. Then BOOM!

I suggested to Elon that we should go out to the debris field for post-flight analysis... and artifact collecting!

Someone tried to cheer Elon up with a quote about learning coming from life's failures. Elon replied: “Given the options, I prefer to learn from success.”

That is the quote I am using on the placards for the wreckage remains.
