Ouch!
Looks like something near the header tank started ripping apart along the downcomer. O2 was nearly full, just a little bit of methane. Since pure oxygen tends to make almost anything burn if there’s a flame, that probably burned down quite a lot of stuff around the pieces of Ship 36.
On the bright side, the payload door opened this time!
The static fire (at Massey’s) hadn’t actually started. Unclear how the ground systems are doing. At least it’s a pretty night explosion?

We won’t know for sure until sunrise, but it seems like a fair bit of the infrastructure surrounding the test stand at Massey’s may have gotten torched by the fireball.

Nbd just rebrand it as a dynamic fire test ezpz
