Accident Claims SpaceX Dragon Abort Test Capsule

This is bad. My guess is at least a year delay for SpaceX commercial
crew. Here is hoping that Boeing gets its act together because we need
something to replace Soyuz for US crew.


I don't know if we know enough to be talking about how much delay this
would inject. The headline makes it sound like the capsule is a dead
loss but I don't think we even know that for sure.
