I did wonder how long it would be before they had a dramatic failure, but I didn't think it would be quite so soon. I'm sure they will carry on, I wonder if they will be refunding deposits to people who have now "changed their minds" about low orbital flight?? David

When the cause is identified, it'll be fixed and a safer craft will be the result.
