Technically, it exploded well before it delivered the satellite.

edit to add some facts since this seems to be getting downvoted pretty quickly: Stage 1 landed and exploded at around T+10min, the satellite was deployed at T+56min. This was just two minutes after it was delivered on its final orbit. Both of those could be considered "delivered to space", neither of which happened before the failed landing.

You're being downvoted because it's a stupid assertion and it's "technically" not even the same craft at that point.

The title presented it as if it were a single craft at all times. Of course "delivering 2nd stage to space" would sound silly, but I'm sure the title could be worded factually correct and still be simple and informative (as titles should be).

"SpaceX booster explodes during recovery, payload delivery unhindered"

I think this is an interesting point. While I don't think we ought to rush out and change our terminology, I had not heard this anywhere else.

The satellite was comfortably above the Kármán line by the time of the failed landing.

Comfortably for ~2 hours before it would fall back to Earth. I think that "delivered" implies that something is done, in this case a final position for the satellite.
