  • Nope, they test launched an experimental rocket from an experimental launch pad.

    The pad actually survived and only needed minor repairs (completed within 3 months when it took well over a year to build) and going foreward a new suppression system will be used.

    The only rocket that blew up recently was the experimental one but that was expected, they have 2 more test rockets built out, it was time to launch and get some real life data for future development. As long as the launch tower wasn’t destroyed the test was going to be considered a success.

    They have only lost 2 rockets in actual commercial operations and that rocket holds the title of most reliable in the world currently.
