Power failed at SpaceX mission control before September spacewalk by NASA nominee
- A power outage occurred at SpaceX Mission Control in September, causing a loss of ground control for at least an hour during a mission that included the first private spacewalk in history.
- The outage was caused by a leak in a cooling system at a SpaceX facility in Hawthorne, California, which triggered a power surge.
- The outage affected servers that host procedures to manage such incidents, making it difficult for SpaceX to transfer control to a backup facility in Florida.
- SpaceX stated that had Mission Control remained offline, the astronauts were trained enough to control the spacecraft themselves.
