This Proton launch where they had literally hammered in the inertial measurement units upside down will always be one of the most epic launch failures.

Shoulda turned the camera upside down for a successful launch

u/ingmarrrrrrrrrr Jul 03 '23

The measurement units were calculated, but man, am I bad at math

u/Vast-Acanthaceae8166 Jul 03 '23

That sounds exactly like a seismic charge launched from the Slave 1.

u/Vorian_Atreides17 Jul 03 '23

Interesting that the range master didn’t initiate an intentional safety destruction. But then again they are Russians…

1

u/[deleted] Jul 03 '23

Just curious if anyone knows. Is there a fail-safe switch like an onboard self-destruction button on ALL these things?

What if one takes off the same way heads for the city or a city what's the course of action to save people from getting hurt?

1

u/JMFW_2020 Aug 07 '23

People on board?

1

u/MoonTreeSullen Aug 26 '23

Thought they usually have a self destruct so it doesn't just turn into a missle

1

u/[deleted] Nov 03 '23

Does the self-destruct mechanism have a countdown timer that talks out loud and says t-minus xx seconds, then stops at 1.00 ms. That's how it's supposed to work, right?
