Well, that was anticlimactic… ---

Brief ignition, then abort. “Out of bounds start up”. (detected by computer) MIGHT try again today (but **I** wouldn’t bet on it) Brian ---

I just connected to the SN10 livestream. Launch hold at T-0.1? Just saw @N9IWP’s comment. Post-ignition abort. Are these Raptor engines being noticeably touchy? ---

I think I’m glitching them, every time I connect to the livestream the launch fails or gets cancelled. ---

They’re going to try again in two hours, according to Insprucker. ---

Hang in there. The launch director just said they think they can make another attempt in about 2 hours. Must have been a very simple problem. ---

Don’t even think about the launch! You’re cursing it with your mind. We’ll tell you what happened later. ---

Was about to say that they probably weren’t going to reuse the hull, but they’re definitely saving those Raptors… apparently not! ---
