Message to Edit: HTML is ON UBB Code is ON Smilies Legend	Originally posted by Robert Pearlman on 11-13-2020 08:22 AM SpaceX conducted its third static fire with the SN8 prototype on Thursday (Nov. 12), but ran into problems. From Elon Musk ([URL=https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1327070929868914689]via Twitter[/URL]): <BLOCKQUOTE>[i]We lost vehicle pneumatics. Reason unknown at present. Liquid oxygen header tank pressure is rising. Hopefully triggers burst disk to relieve pressure, otherwise it's going to pop the cork. Burst disk worked, so vehicle appears to be ok. We'll have to swap out at least one of the engines. Maybe melted an engine preburner or fuel hot gas manifold. Whatever it is caused pneumatics loss. We need to design out this problem.[/i]</BLOCKQUOTE> <center><iframe width="400" height="225" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/gUAj7UdDqfI" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe></center>
