SpaceX’s Falcon 9 Rockets Grounded Again After Ocean Crash

SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rockets have faced yet another setback. The iconic rockets are grounded for the third time in three months. This grounding follows an incident where part of a rocket crashed uncontrollably into the ocean.

The Falcon 9 rocket was on a mission to deliver a capsule for a “rescue mission.” This mission aims to bring home astronauts who have been stranded on the International Space Station (ISS) since June. Although the capsule successfully reached the ISS, additional issues have arisen. Consequently, an investigation has been launched to address these problems.

On Saturday, September 28, at 1:17 p.m. EDT, SpaceX launched a Falcon 9 rocket from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida. The rocket carried two astronauts: NASA’s Nick Hague and Russian cosmonaut Aleksandr Gorbunov. They traveled inside one of SpaceX’s Dragon spacecraft capsules, a key component of the mission.
