So Starship Ship 36 just detonated *before* the static fire test - fueled and waiting for the test. Looks like the top tank lets go and sets off the whole stack. It would be bad enough if it let go during the static fire test, but it just blew up. And it's cooking off the fuel tanks on the pad.

The DC military parade looked sad
The video described by Rolling Stone sums it up:
"Though rock music blared on TV, the parade itself was eerily quiet. One video…shows tanks squeaking past nearly silent crowds, sounding like a grocery cart in need of grease."
