Don't even bother reading it: whenever there is a question on the headline of an article from a serious major news outlet, the answer is NO. Seriously it's like that EVERY time. 100%. Literally. Early ages of click-bait when it wasn't even clicking but buying read-bait. Sensationalism and controversy always sell but they have to keep some kind of integrity to be taken seriously, right? Anyway: Challenger, Columbia, Apollo 1. Those were actual disasters. That was actually taking it too far. And the industry learned from those failures and put in place the necessary failsafes to avoid them. Doesn't mean there aren't more to come. Blowing up stuff to get into space is still blowing up stuff. Nevermind driving thousands of cars in actual traffic millions of miles. But what SpaceX is doing, testing on production non manned vehicles, doesn't even compare to what both USA and Russia were doing during the space race. The only problem is it upsets shareholders, and I'm pretty sure the amount of people trying to short this stock is reaching critical mass, so they better be more careful because the real shitstorm of defamation and FUD is yet to come...
