  • Summary

  • In today's episode, we're diving deep into the surprising aftermath of SpaceX's Starship launch on April 20, 2023. When the Port Isabel residents awoke to a dust-covered town following the monumental event, many speculated that it was debris from the disintegrated launch pad. But was it really? Dr. Phil Metzger, a seasoned planetary scientist, steps in with a spectral analysis that may shift our perspective. We'll discuss his findings, the implications for NASA's lunar launch pads, and what this means for the future of space travel. Plus, we'll touch on the subsequent FAA grounding and what SpaceX might be doing differently in the next launch.

    As we prepare to embark on this intriguing journey into the residual effects of a pivotal moment in space history, it's time to ask the question: was it dust from the launch pad or just a sandy day at the beach for Port Isabel residents?
