Now there is a new twist in the Space X explosion. Conspiracy theorists have something to say. They believe that some new evidence of a UFO has been found after looking at the footage of the rocket's take-off. It may help to show why it happened.
You can blame it all on an unidentified object that was observed flying past the launch pad. Some viewers suggested that it might be a drone or an explosive device that could have led to the blast-off.
Some conspiracy theorists even claim that the rocket was attacked by aliens in order to halt Facebook from spreading its internet.org in Africa.
However, SpaceX CEO Elon Musk affirmed that though it has not been confirmed, the reason for the explosion has not been found.
When this "reusable" rocket exploded at Cape Canaveral in Florida on Thursday, it was swallowed by fiery flames and thick, black smoke.
There is a "small, round, silver shape" that can be observed flying and soaring above the fiery explosion.
The clip was shared by Steve Svensson, who explained: "It appears that SpaceX may have been shot by a very fast moving drone, or possibly an explosive in the satellite was triggered?
"We all know people love to hate Elon Musk."
So what was that unidentified mystery object? There is a lot of speculation and effort to identify it. The suggestions are pretty wild and widespread---that it may be an insect, or a bird, or a missile, or....a UFO.
One commentator said: "There are birds fluttering around all over the place throughout the video. This is nothing unusual."
But Frank L said: "There appears to be an object streaking across the sky from left to right that would have created a sonic boom and caused the explosion!"
And Thomas Adams added: "I'm freaked out a little, birds can't fly at 1000 mph.
"Right when the rocket starts to explode a UFO takes off from the bottom left and climbs to at least 2000 ft in less than one second."
