Explosion at Northrop Grumman’s Utah Rocket Facility

A powerful explosion destroyed part of Northrop Grumman's solid rocket motor production facility in Promontory, UT. Unbelievably, no serious injuries resulted from the blast which sent shockwaves through the surrounding area. The facility, known as "Rocket Ranch," is a cornerstone of the US solid rocket motor (SRM) production capability and plays a central role in some of the nation's most critical defense and space programs. An investigation and safety review are underway. youtu.be

Accidents do happen with volatile chemicals and powerful fuels like what happened to Apollo I last century. This explosion is too early to cry foul play, but all possibilities ought to remain on the table. NATO remains on high alert for Russian sabotage. This past Jan, a Wagner operative was caught crossing the US illegally at the US-Mexican border with a drone in his backpack. Timur Praliev was sentenced to time served and released.
