Space X’s Falcon 9 has exploded on the launch pad in Cape Canaveral, Florida.

The exact cause for the explosion is not yet known, but thick black smoke could be seen rising from the surrounding area.

Witnesses reported that the strong blast shook buildings nearby.

SpaceX was conducting a test firing of its rocket when the blast occurred Thursday morning.

Space Exploration Technologies Corporation, better known as SpaceX, is an American aerospace manufacturer and space transport services company headquartered in Hawthorne, California, United States.

A source at Space X reported to Robin Seemangal: “We actually thought the building was collapsing, it shook us so bad. But some people in the operations and checkout building didn’t feel it.”
