Elon Musk\u2019s SpaceX suffered an anomaly in one of its Crew Dragon capsules while conducting engine tests at the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida. <\/p>\n
The company says the initial tests completed successfully but the final test resulted in an anomaly on the test stand.<\/p>\n
CNBC reports the issue was earlier reported by Florida Today, which said orange smoke was seen rising above SpaceX\u2019s facilities, and that the anomaly was contained with no injuries.<\/p>\n
SpaceX says its teams are investigating and are working closely with U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) partners.<\/p>\n
NASA has awarded SpaceX and Boeing a total of $6.8 billion to build competing rocket and capsule systems to launch astronauts into orbit from American soil.<\/p>\n
In March, the privately owned SpaceX successfully completed its mission of sending an unmanned capsule to the International Space Station and returned safely to Earth, a mission seen as crucial to NASA\u2019s plans to resume human space flight from U.S. soil.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
