❌ Crash d'une fusée russe le 02/09/24

Le post

🚀 Russian missile goes up...and down again. Now imagine they stuck a 40 year old nuke on there 🤡 Reportedly, this launch is a part of the russian #Space Program - a sight to behold. 🛠 Note much of the former Soviet Union's missile #engineering capability was located in modern #Ukraine Which is yet another reason why they want it back. And why we cannot let them have it back. "Comrade, is Kosmonaut! Not crashmonaut!"

Le fact-check

❌ It's wrong The video is set at the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan, but it's eleven years old ! The video has also been mirror-reversed for good mesure. The video shows the launch of the Proton M/DM-03 rocket carrying three GLONASS satellites on 2 July 2013 at 6:38 (local time). The rocket began to deviate from its trajectory a few seconds after lift-off, resulting in the loss of its payload, and ended its trajectory in a fireworks display without causing any casualties on the ground. The cost of the loss of the spacecraft and its satellites was estimated at 200 million dollars. https://www.russianspaceweb.com/proton_glonass49.html https://unifiedpoptheory.com/launching-rockets-is-still-difficult-proton-m-crash-at-baikonur-cosmodrome/ Although located in Kazakhstan, the Cosmodrome is leased to the Russian state and is under the direction of the Russian space agency, Roscomos. The original video used for this montage: https://youtu.be/wlUojBcvnlY Video of the crash from another angle: https://youtu.be/Zl12dXYcUTo So, not only is the video old, it's also flipped—and much like the rocket, completely off course.
