Heh to you both. Gilmour shouldn’t be embarrassed by this glitch. Any reader of Eric Berger’s estimable Liftoff will recall that SpaceX had multiple glitches and snafus this bad or worse on the way to finally succeeding with Falcon 1. So when Gilmour finally does reach orbit and earns a seat at the big boy rocketeers table, it will not lack for amusing stories to swap with the others there seated.

Not to be mean, but I do hope there’s video of it. That might rank up there with Astra’s powerslide in the list of entertaining scrubs of the newspace era.
