| #7 StarShip on a test stand in the test area Not launch pad just totally blew up! Even worse it is right on the edge of the Rio Grande river with a bad part of Mexico just across from it. It could be an accident. It could be a gun shot. It could be anything. As to day/night.. they work 24 hours/day there. I like what Musk is trying to do but would never ever work for him. There are rattle snakes up a 6 inches thick there, with all sorts of dangerous critters like alligators and even rumors of jaguars. The area where that test pad is used to be a gun range. |
