Your Reply: HTML is ON UBB Code is ON Smilies Legend	[QUOTE]Originally posted by Robert Pearlman: [B]The range safety officer did not act to terminate the flight until well after the vehicle had already disintegrated. <BLOCKQUOTE>[i]The Air Force's Eastern Range did send commands to destroy the Falcon 9 rocket about 70 seconds after it experienced an upper-stage malfunction, SpaceX officials confirmed. That action had no impact on the rocket's disintegration more than two minutes after a 10:21 a.m. launch.[/i]</BLOCKQUOTE> According to Senator Nelson, who was briefed by both NASA and SpaceX, the RSO waited as long as he did because the vehicle was not in the position to harm anyone or any property. The command was sent, but only as a matter of course.[/B][/QUOTE]
