Love these euphemisms - rich2005 - 02-01-2025

Why use one word when three will do ?

The SpaceX rocket had a Rapid Unscheduled Disassembly 

It exploded.

I think the euphemisms are just 'spin'. There are 2 astronauts who are not stranded and returning them would leave the space station 'understaffed'.
A SpaceX capsule (Crew-9) is currently docked at the space station and waiting for the replacement capsule (Crew-10). So its broken-down?

The RUD was a joke.

The two stranded astronauts are another matter, and I want to see their paychecks given all the overtime...
