SpaceX Rockets Put Passenger Planes at Risk

All Rockets Put Passenger Planes at Risk. There, I fixed that for you.

These breakups fall within a statistical analysis sent by SpaceX to the FAA requesting a permit to launch, and the FAA approves it. Like with all other US rockets. The fact that nobody was harmed is proof the system is working.

The context free specificity of these articles is really annoying. Pick one instance from one company and drill down, ignoring the fact that such risks are the norm and already accounted for. It's like having a headline "Wendy's French Frys Increase Risk of Heart Disease."

To get some perspective:

And it isn't something new; it's been this way all along:
