The SpaceX Explosion

The video discusses two major space events: the SpaceX Falcon 9 explosion and the Philae lander's mission on comet 67P. The Falcon 9 exploded during a routine test, destroying a $200 million satellite. SpaceX is investigating the cause, with no clear answers yet. Meanwhile, Philae's mission faced challenges when its harpoons failed, but it managed to gather valuable data before its battery died. Later, Philae was found in a crevice on the comet. The video also highlights SciShow Space's Patreon support and upcoming series voting.
