Seems to indicate that they consider it a success.
"Launching in a week or so". Internally, would they not have a set of
fixed dates where tghey have a launch window from the lauch site?
Are you stuck on stupid? How many times are you going to ask the same
question hoping for a different answer?
Is it correct to state that anything in the vicinity of the pad is
property of Space-X ? (aka: if Falcon Heavy goes kaboom all that it
destroys will be Space-X gear and Space X won't owe any money to anyone
else?
Pads are leased. No doubt their contract specifies what shape it has
to be in when they're done with it.
I wonder what the insurance contract is like for this launch,
considering that even Musk has set low expectations in public.
What's to insure?
