Part 5/7:
During the ascent, issues arose at a point in flight where traditionally, making it beyond the maximum dynamic pressure, known as Max Q, would not cause problems. In fact, this was a similarity shared with earlier flights where failures occurred just moments before stage separation.
The telemetry data presented real-time insights into the rocket's performance, revealing issues that would later lead to signal loss and eventual destruction of the vehicle for safety.
Contrasting with Historical Missions
The discussions surrounding this recent launch hinted at comparisons with historic missions like Apollo. While some suggested it might be easier to replicate the legendary Apollo 11 mission, the immense costs associated with such endeavors render them impractical today.
