    Some rockets ignite all the engines before releasing the clamps. Like starting your engine before putting it in gear. Computer detected an anomaly and aborted before the clamps were opened.

    Iirc starship had something similar. The computer was expected X amount of force and it was over that. They adjusted the firmware to expect more force and launched later that day, again iirc.

    I've got parts (optics) on the Hubble and both of the original Mars rovers.

    Opportunity is a gift
    Curiosity never dies

    HST is the gift that keeps on giving!

    Really blows the mind, thinking how many star lifecycles the stuff around us must have gone through to end up as "Earth".
