SpaceX engineer here, I don't have a lot of time. All I can say is this: we found evidence of a high evergy impact on booster debris recovered by divers this morning. I know what you're thinking, ha ha "ULA sniper". We were all joking about that too after seeing the molten holes in the common dome. Until our blood ran cold. We realized that based on the orientation of the booster during the boostback burn, the impact wasn't from below.
It was from above.

they're interested in boosting their ego by working at "that place where the smart people work", they probably think space exploration should be banned because its racist
