SpaceX launches are on hold after a booster rocket toppled over in flames while landing. The Federal Aviation Administration grounded the company's Falcon 9 rockets and ordered an investigation following Wednesday's accident off the Florida coast.
Not as much as you might think. Space launch rockets don’t carry a lot of extra fuel beyond what’s absolutely needed. Even propulsively landed rockets are almost empty.
If you want to be outraged, look at how much carbon dioxide is produced during ascent.
