shuttle engine blowup?
From: lauren at UCLA-Security (Lauren Weinstein)
A few days ago, I heard (from a usually reliable source) that a
"$30 million space shuttle engine exploded during testing and was
totally destroyed."

This event was supposedly within the last two or three weeks, but was
kept relatively "quiet" until recently.  There also apparently was
difficulty in determining what caused the explosion.

Does anyone have more details about this?  The mass media has been
silent it seems, but I have alot of faith in my source.
Thanks much.
