I'll bet it blew up on the droneship. It was weird they didn't have an immediate confirmation; I thought they have a boat or heli within visual range for the photo.

Perhaps they have to "structure" a more formal statement even though the rocket could have been observed exploding. Purely speculation though.

Yeah, that's sort of how I feel as well. It seems odd that they didn't immediately know or say, then they cut it off immediately.
