Yeah, looks like numerous anomalies on both stages, a lot of work to do.

They've got to launch versions of this flawlessly like 20+ times in the next 18 months to be ready for Artemis III / IV.

Space is hard.

Just watch the flip and on target landing. Stunning.

With that said, it exploded, but it was an intentional explosion as it hit the water. But seeing it with full video from the ship, relayed through starlink, in real time was really cool.

They briefly mentioned that there was a problem with the re-entry burn apparently so they had to make the call to call things short and "terminate" the attempt. Which I think was a thinly veiled way to say "We blowed it up"
