Honestly this isn’t even SpaceX level failure. [The launch has been canceled until further notice, but they have a spare fairing and will send it to the launch site for integration. Also, the payload is safe and sound.](https://www.instagram.com/p/DJsDPySBvJj/?igsh=MWtoa3JtajB1bzI2dw==)
That’s a Kerbal Level Failure. We’ve all been there.
They blew all the explosive bolts up there? Wow.
That’s not very typical, I’d like to make that point. There are a lot of these ships launching around the world all the time, and very seldom does anything like this happen. Some of them are built so the front doesn’t fall off at all.
They probably got the staging order backwards. It’s embarrassing to go through the official countdown only to have the parachute pop out when you get to 1. Jeb was always bad about that.
