SpaceX has made the Falcon 9 the heart of its launch operations, sending both cargo and now people into space.

However, the private spaceflight company plans to transition its operations to its Starship rocket in the future.

Following the historic Falcon 9 launch, a Reuters reporter managed to ask Musk about the Starship incident.

“What we thought was going to be a minor test of a quick disconnect ended up being a big problem,” Musk said.

The quick disconnect is an apparatus that connects to the bottom of the rocket to load fuel and relay telemetry.

It’s likely the “test” Musk referred to was assessing the ability of the quick disconnect module to disconnect and reconnect.
