Oh Dear!

Genesis chute fails to deploy and it bites the dust :frowning:

Added another pic since the first is MIA

I wasn’t listening intently to the news, but I’m sure they said it entered the atmosphere are 25,000mph, but only hit the ground at 100-110mph. That seems like an amazing deceleration without a chute!

we have a saying in this country for that sort of thing:
■■■■■■!

:lol: :lol: I don’t get to use that one too much around here :lol:

I couldn't find any confirmation of that 25K, and it doesn't sound too credible, but it was definitely the 100 to zero in 30 inches that caused the damage :wink:

i was surprised it wasn’t in a million pieces :roll:
