        Man I’m starting to fall behind on Manley’s videos! Going to fix that now, thanks for the prompt.

        Wow pretty cool, wonder how that impacts certification. I am guessing there are multiple categories that a rocket system needs to pass checks in order to pass, so maybe they have a contingency for such cases.

          Yeah, if I were the USSF, I’m not sure I would be comfortable putting a billion-dollar spy satellite atop Vulcan just yet. I’d probably want a bit more investigation into the GEM 63XL SRBs before giving them the stamp of approval.

          That’s not very typical, no.

            I mean, “the back fell off” is kind of the entire concept of rocket stages, so in a way, it is typical. They usually have to fall off in the correct sequence, at the correct time, and in one piece though.
