As interesting as this (Metal vs Composites Round 2, Now With Less Hate) is (and I actually do think it is very interesting), it probably doesn't belong on this thread.
I still want to hear more about how a friggn' N motor was allowed to go off accidentally during the continuity check. Given that my mental image of this event has the team members within spitting distance of their rocket (which is to say tens of feet, which is what I have seen at away cells at other launches), I'm surprised any of them are out of the hospital by now. If I'm ever going to go to NM to fly, I want an explanation of how it happened, what the proximate cause was, and what steps will be taken to prevent it in the future. For such a serious and life-threatening safety breach, is that too much to ask? Or am I taking this too seriously?
