Elon Musk says rocket explosion is the most “difficult and complex” failure SpaceX has ever had - The Washington Post

The SpaceX explosion mystery continues

"The spectacular explosion of a SpaceX rocket turned into a full-blown mystery Friday after Elon Musk took to Twitter to say the company is so baffled about what happened it needs help from the public.

There was a mysterious bang of unknown origin seconds before ignition, he noted. There was no apparent source of heat that could have ignited the blast, he said. And then he refused to rule out the rampant Internet speculation that something--a drone? UFO?--may have crashed into the rocket, fueling rumors of sabotage. He did, however, seem to rule out alien involvement."
