Of course you do. My point is that you reach hard conclusions based on superficial media reports and refuse to consider that there are many ways for that pin to be bent and nany ways where the rocket was cleared for launch. You don't know if this was a frequent problem or whether this was the first time this happened ever. You don't know whether there was a documented fix or whether the crews thought of it themselves. Of course it means that. Look at their history. Just because they quickly decide this was a one-off and proceed with more launches does not mean that they don't go deeper to find out how this happened. Just because the results don't get pubhlished by some commission 3 years later in a hige bible doesn't mean that they don't get to the bottom of it. Of course it means that. And just because top management are not forced to implement permanent fixes doesn't mean that they don't know of the problem. Of course it means they don't know. "Don't launch bent rockets". My answer is much more likely than yours Unless you are infolved in the investigation, you are not qualified to provide an answer and declare any other to be invalid. They are all speculative. You're an idiot. Why didn't the guy who drilled the hole in the Soyuz spacecraft report it? I was merely ponting out that your answer is not the only possible one and that the folks involved inside the company would likely be looking at many possibilities as they go down the fault tree in terms of work that was done, what was checked, waht was approved for flight. You seem to think that the Russians operate like Americans. They don't. It could very well be that your answer ends up being the correct one. But at this stage it can't be declared "correct". given the culture of the organization, You speculate on the culture of the organisation. Speculate? No. I observe the historical facts. You should try that some time. The question isn't whether there is a culture problem, the question is to find out why, in this case, the existing culture cleared the rocket for launch. And it isn't as simple as you might think , and I provided the example of what if bent pins were documented as acceptable with a documented fix of lubricant? And I proved the example of monkeys flying out your butt. all the bootless speculation you care to. Pointing out other possibilities. You reach hard conclusions without having access to actual evidence. Poppycock. God, I hope you never wind up in a safety critical job! Safety clritical job needs to evaluate as many failure modes as possible, not just focus on one you think is the answer. You're willing to fly 'bent' rockets.

Oh well, we have the technology. From Google Translate: Roscosmos. Press conference on the results of the work of the State Commission to determine the causes of the emergency situation that occurred on October 11, 2018 .... The reason for abnormal separation is the failure to open the lid of the nozzle cover of the oxidizer tank of the "D" block due to the deformation of the sensor of the separation contact sensor (bending to 6 degrees 45') allowed when assembling the "bag" at the Baikonur cosmodrome. The cause of the RN accident is operational in nature and extends to the groundwork collected in the ?package? of the Soyuz type LV. Well, there you go. The guys assembling the launch vehicle absolutely effed it up. They bent the contact sensor to more than six degress during assembly. And, of course, no one reported it, no one caught it in an inspection, nothing to see here, just launch it and hope for the best. These are signs of a screwed up quality control culture, IMHO.

14:54:23 -0400: Roscosmos released on-board video of soyuz failure. https://youtu.be/CrzlMTRVt_I (booster separation starts roughly 1:23 into video). Youtube hint: use the "." and "," keys in paused video to advance/reverse frame by frame). Also: at roughly 1:26, there appears to be a large portion of video skipped). And the times in video don't match actual time since launch. Which confirms exactly what I said happened based on the ground video, that you claimed wasn't of sufficient resolution to see anything. Imagine that! The Roscosmos press release on the issuance of report: (google translation) https://translate.google.com/transla...%2F&edit-text= It does confirm the damaged occiured during final assembly at Baikonour (so not during manufacturing or transport). Which you steadfastly argued against. Imagine that! But contrary to media reports that some claimed "confirmed" what happened, it wasn't a bent pin that the crews coated with lubricant so the booster could be slid into place, but rather a very small "push button" pin designed to detect when separation begins in order to open an O2 valve to act as reverse thruster at the top of booster to move it down and out of main rocket. You need to go read everything that 'some' said again. 'Some' said that the problem was obviously that the O2 valve on one of the strap-ons didn't open because they failed to get separation signal. This is the point where you were arguing about 'pyros'. A list of possible causes for why this could have happened was given by 'some' that included 'bad sensor', which is what this was. Now, how do you supposed that pin got bent. Something to do with them jockeying around trying to get the strap-on connected due to the larger bent pin, perhaps? Or do you think that's just all coincidental? The opening of the O2 valve doesn't act as a 'reverse thruster', by the way. It acts as a LATERAL thruster to 'push' the top of the strap-on away from the core stage. 'Some' explained this to you multiple times, but you're usually so busy arguing with 'some' that your mind is firmly closed. It is also not clear whether the assembly workers noticed this or not. (If not, then the assembly process itself would need to ensure such sensors are not damaged during mating). Well, I'm pretty sure there's nothing in the assembly process now that says "go ahead and damage sensors during mating", so it kind of goes without saying that you aren't supposed to. There actually IS a documented tolerance on how much 'bend' is allowable in that sensor pin, by the way. It's a maximum of six degrees and 45 minutes. Since there's a tolerance, one assumes it should be checked. Also, in this failure, the booster, in not distancing its top portion from core, moved down, with the top of booster ripping through the core and causing core's propellant to be released. Pretty much what 'some' said happened and you argued against. (In the video one can see some long cable-like thing dragging after, indicating more damage than simple dent in engine bell. Again, let's go back to how 'some' explained to you that separation works on this vehicle. As the strap-on loses thrust, it starts to 'lag' the rest of the vehicle. This trips the separation sensor (the thing that was bent, so that didn't happen). This sends a signal to both ends of the strap-on. The signal to the top opens the O2 valve. The signal to the bottom fires the only pyros involved in the separation which are used to sever some data cables. Since the signal wasn't sent (bad sensor), the pyros didn't fire and what you see there is probably the data cable ripped lose from the strap-on because it was still connected to the core stage. Seriously, Mayfly, does ANY of this sound AT ALL familiar to you? QUESTION: at that altitude, would releasing large amounts of kerosene cause an explosion or would it remain unignited except for propelland falling behind core's exhaust where there might be some lefover O2 availabls? Why do you think it would explode? What's the ignition source? So even disregarding the lack of oxygen, it's unlikely to explode. Obviously, internally, they know far more than they are releasing to the media in terms of how/why the sensor was damaged, whether the workers knew of it or didn't notice etc etc. So there really isn't enough information available to make judgement on the problems that allowed this to happen. Oh, be serious! Damaged during assembly and either no one checked, no one noticed, or no one reported the possibility, or some combination of the above. When you have to jack about getting things to mate correctly, damage is likely. This is precisely the cultural problem 'some' have pointed out repeatedly and that you have steadfastly argued against, even now. -- "Some people get lost in thought because it's such unfamiliar territory." --G.

And yet this shoddy workmanship *did* happen and was tested to see if it could have caused the incident. It didn't, but that's like saying Ford forgot to put several lug nuts on a new car, but it ended up crashing due to an improperly installed ABS sensor. So, no need to worry about the people installing the lug nuts, because they didn't cause this particular accident. SMH. It is also not clear whether the assembly workers noticed this or not. (If not, then the assembly process itself would need to ensure such sensors are not damaged during mating). No, it's not clear. What is clear is that the sensor was bent during assembly. The Russians are giving little more detail than that. And of course NASA isn't going to give us more detail. Everything is fine! Of course we're going to continue to launch astronauts on Soyuz. Just move along. There is nothing to see here! Also, in this failure, the booster, in not distancing its top portion from core, moved down, with the top of booster ripping through the core and causing core's propellant to be released. Yeah, that's really bad. The release of pressure in the tank resulted in a very large, sudden, force on the stack which caused it to immediately tumble. IMHO, it's highly likely that the tumbling is what caused the automatic abort system to activate. When your launch vehicle rotation rates indicate that things are *literally* going sideways, you have a huge problem. (In the video one can see some long cable-like thing dragging after, indicating more damage than simple dent in engine bell. QUESTION: at that altitude, would releasing large amounts of kerosene cause an explosion or would it remain unignited except for propelland falling behind core's exhaust where there might be some lefover O2 availabls? I swear we went over this when SpaceX lost a Falcon 9 on the pad when the COPV let loose. It's a very similar situation. Here we go again. To obtain an explosion, you'd have to have pre-mixing of kerosene and LOX. That didn't happen. So there could be no explosion. But, again, the kerosene and LOX tanks are under pressure (to maintain the required head pressure at the pump inlets), so just releasing that pressure is what caused the stack to immediately tumble. No "explosion" required. If anyone calls it an explosion, they're technically wrong. Obviously, internally, they know far more than they are releasing to the media in terms of how/why the sensor was damaged, whether the workers knew of it or didn't notice etc etc. We have no idea. It's hard to tell how honest someone is being when they know if they give the "wrong" answer, the consequences are going to be dire. It's the Russians we're talking about. Their safety culture is completely broken, IMHO. The floggings will continue until morale (and reliability) improves. So there really isn't enough information available to make judgement on the problems that allowed this to happen. Bull****. They have a broken safety culture. Look at their launch record over the last 20 years. Look at all versions of the Soyuz and Proton launch vehicles. This information is in Wikipedia, so it's dead simple to find. Look at both "failures" and "partial failures". Soyuz 2, their latest and "greatest" version of the R-7 family, has an absolutely horrible reliability record. You can calculate the failure rate yourself from the available data. And do note that Soyuz 2 is the vehicle that they will use exclusively for crewed Soyuz capsule launches in a scant two years. Again, look at the tables under planned launches of Soyuz 2 and you'll see that the first crewed flight will be in 2020, if memory serves. So when you say "there really isn't enough information available to make judgment on the problems that allowed this to happen", I disagree completely. Designs that are heavily based on vehicles that have been flying for more than half a century should *not* fail at the rate that Soyuz 2 is failing. That is your root cause. The Russian launch program has a failed safety culture. This is why future Russian launches will continue to fail at an unacceptably high rate. You can see the train wreck approaching in the Soyuz 2 tables on Wikipedia. It's only a matter of time before a crew dies. Jeff -- All opinions posted by me on Usenet News are mine, and mine alone.

Imagine that! This video was Released Nov 1. You made your claims that the fault was conformed well before that. And you mentioned it was a bent pin, as in bent mounting pin and mentioned they had to lubricate it to slide the booster onto it. Because at the level of 'failed separation' it was confirmed in less than a day. A day or so later THE RUSSIANS said it was a bent pin and THE RUSSIANS mentioned they had to lubricate it to get first and second stage assembled. You really do have the memory of a mayfly coupled with the reading comprehension of the average kindergartner. You need to go read everything that 'some' said again. 'Some' said that the problem was obviously that the O2 valve on one of the strap-ons didn't open because they failed to get separation signal. No. Yes. Stop lying. Go back and read it all again. "some" said it was a bent pin and they had to lubricate it because they couldn't slide the booster on otherwise. Which I assumed kept the separation signal from being honored by the LOX valve. Do you bother to read complete sentences? You made your claims of factual confirmed caused at the time that was the rumour. I made my claims based on statements by the head of the responsible agency. Now you are claiming you always claimed it was a push button sensor that was bent and that you know this all allong. Nope. I haven't said what you claim. Again, go back and read my 'guess' that you were so derisive of. One of the possible causes for the LOX valve to not open (which is what I said happened) that I gave was 'bad sensor'. You know, if you spent even half the effort pulling your head out of your ass and actually researching and analyzing things that you do trying to play 'gotcha' with me you would sound a lot brighter. Your failure to do so can only indicate that your head is too firmly lodged up your ass and that you are incapable of actual research and analysis. This is the point where you were arguing about 'pyros'. It was always known that pyros released the lower portion of the booster and that the boosters could they drop of their support (which they normally pushed against) at the top of booster. Bloody hell! As I have explained multiple times THAT IS NOT HOW IT WORKS. Read slowly. Phone a friend and have them explain it to you. The pyros release SOME DATA CABLES. THERE IS NO STRUCTURAL SUPPORT THROUGH THE BOTTOM ATTACHMENT POINT. ALL STRUCTURAL SUPPORT IS THROUGH THE BALL JOINT AT THE TOP OF THE STRAP-ONS. And that ball joint isn't really 'attached' to the core stage, either. Inertia separates the whole works when the strap-on runs out of fuel and is no longer accelerating while the core stage is. Does ANY of that sound at all familiar, Mayfly? I ask because I've explained it more times than I can count now. The opening of the O2 valve doesn't act as a 'reverse thruster', by the way. It acts as a LATERAL thruster to 'push' the top of the strap-on away from the core stage. And how do you know it isn't diagonal? The booster needs to drop out of the top coupling and then move away. Yes, what you see in video is booster moving away, but that angle does not allow you to see any vertical thrust vector. The timing matters here because sideways push while the booster still exert some positive upwards force against the ball coupling would prevenet side movement from the O2 thurster. Oh Jesus ****ing Christ! This, too, has been explained to you repeated. Google "Korolev Cross", you nitwit. Look at separation videos where everything worked and notice how the tops of the strap-ons fly straight out from the core stage on separation. Think about how a 'reverse thruster' is the very last thing you want, since that gives you exactly what happened during the accident only faster, you idiot. (sequence is pyros fire while engines still running and then engines start to move lower part away, engines cut out, and the O2 thruster fires at a time when hopefully the thrust from engines is gone. Absolutely wrong AND THIS HAS BEEN EXPLAINED TO YOU MULTIPLE TIMES! The pyros on the cabling at the lower attachment point and the opening of the LOX valve ARE TRIGGERED BY THE SAME SEPARATION SENSOR. That sensor triggers because thrust from the strap-ons has dropped so much that the upper ball joint is no longer held in firm contact and the strap-ons have started to 'lag' the stack. without saying that you aren't supposed to. There actually IS a documented tolerance on how much 'bend' is allowable in that sensor pin, by the way. It's a maximum of six degrees and 45 minutes. Since there's a tolerance, one assumes it should be checked. I read that the failed sensor was bent by 6° and some. I didn't read it as this being the tolerance. You read it incorrectly. I do not know if the crews noticed the bend or not. This is not in the press release. Unless you have an official copy of the report, you can't know that either, so it is speculation. You don't know much of anything and what you do know is apparently almost all wrong. You should stop arguing with people who know more than you do. Pretty much what 'some' said happened and you argued against. No, "some" argued it was a bent pin that held the booster which because bent, didn't let it separate. (aka, structural support, not just a push button switch). Your defective reading skills have let you down yet again. NO ONE said what you claim 'some' said. works on this vehicle. As the strap-on loses thrust, it starts to 'lag' the rest of the vehicle. This trips the separation sensor (the thing that was bent, so that didn't happen). This sends a signal to both ends of the strap-on. The signal to the top opens the O2 valve. The signal to the bottom fires the only pyros involved in the separation which are used to sever some data cables. No. Pyros fire first, then thrust is cut, then thursters fire. Read up and look at the video. Absolutely ****ing wrong. Look up how the bloody R-7 works. They want bottom of engines to be pushed away before the top also does the same otherwise as the top moves away, the bottom might hit the core's engine bells. Absolute horse****. Again, go look up how R-7 staging works. Oh, be serious! Damaged during assembly and either no one checked, no one noticed, or no one reported the possibility, or some combination of the above. So you know the assembly and sequence so precisely that you can judge this? There are many gizmnos where, after you put 2 parts together, you can't verify that all is well between the 2 parts, you just assume they are. When you assemble with hands, you can feel that the parts mated smoothly. When you assemble large parts, it isn't so easy to feel that everything went well. When you have to resort to "if it don't fit, force it" it is pretty obvious regardless. Well, except to you because you're remarkably stupid and bull-headed. You are quick to assign human fault because the Russians have bad quality control history. But, unless you are familiar with actual proceduires and wity the actual report, you can't proclaim to know that this is something they check for post assmebly. Just how do you think "damaged during assembly" happens when humans assemble things, Mayfly? Magic ****ing unicorns, perhaps? The procedures may very well call for a check. But unless you can see the actual procedures, you can't make that proclamation as "fact". You wouldn't know a 'fact' if one crawled up your ass so it could be right in front of your eyes. When you have to jack about getting things to mate correctly, damage is likely. Without gettng the actual official report (and the real internal report if the "official" one is tainted by politicial priorities), you can't know what really happenned. You can only speculate. Again, just how do you think something like this gets damaged during assembly, Mayfly? Monkeys flying out your butt? Also, the press replease mentions the push button was bent during assembly. This is sufficiently vague. does assembly refer to final mating? or does it refler to when thyey take the booster out of a flatbed train car/truck and move it to a storage position prior to mating? Was it bent when they picked it up to mate? or was it bent when it contacted the core as it was being mated? When the damage occired matters a lot in terms of discovering it and whether they allowed mating with deffective sensor or mated and coudln't have know it was damaged during mating. Do you know what the word 'assembly' means? It's pretty much synonymous with 'mating' in this context. But you are so adamantly stupid that you refuse to give up on your 'ramdom act of magic did it' theory. If you start getting responses from me that just amount to "bull****" or "wrong", you need to understand THAT IT STEMS FROM YOUR STUBBORN INABILITY TO UNDERSTAND THINGS THAT HAVE BEEN EXPLAINED TO YOU HALF A DOZEN TIMES OR MORE. -- "Ignorance is preferable to error, and he is less remote from the truth who believes nothing than he who believes what is wrong." -- Thomas Jefferson |
