SpaceX Falcon 9 Rocket Explodes on Launch Pad During Fueling

Thursday morning at around 9 ET, a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket exploded while being fueled up for an engine test firing at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. At this time, I have no info on what happened, except that the explosion occurred three minutes before the test was scheduled. The rocket was uncrewed and no one was near the pad, so no one was injured. However, it appears that the payload, an Israeli communications satellite called AMOS-6, was lost. The launch was to have been on Saturday....
