Space Exploration Technologies Corp. (SpaceX) will take one to two weeks to review “all potential failure modes and contingencies,” chief designer and CEO Elon Musk said, following the company’s most recent pair of scrubs to a commercial launch.

SpaceX postponed its AsiaSat 6 launch both Tuesday and Wednesday for unspecified reasons. Musk said in a statement the company is not aware of any issue with Falcon 9, nor the interfaces with the AsiaSat 6 spacecraft, but is further investigating the problem. Musk denied that the scrubs had anything to do with the Falcon 9 reusable (F9R) test vehicle launch malfunction at the company’s Texas commercial launch site last week.

“After a thorough review, we are confident that there is no direct link,” Musk said. “Had the same blocked sensor port problem occurred with an operational Falcon 9, it would have been outvoted by several other sensors. That voting system was not present on the test vehicle.”

Musk said SpaceX wants to “triple-check” whether even “highly improbable” corner case scenarios have the optimal fault detection and recovery logic. This has already been reviewed by SpaceX and multiple outside agencies, Musk said, so the most likely outcome is no change. Musk said if any changes are made, they’ll provide as much detail as allowed by law.

SpaceX did not respond to questions for comment by press time Wednesday.
