liquid oxygen

The Falcon 9 rockets have been grounded

SpaceX said that a liquid oxygen leak developed on the second stage of its Falcon 9 rocket, which was carrying Starlink satellites, during the launch on Thursday night. The rocket’s upper stage engine, which was supposed to be used to raise perigee, couldn’t be performed due to an issue with the engine. SpaceX said it will investigate the incident in conjunction with the FAA.
