Back when it was called SMARF but already under ULA lease, it became the focus of an extraordinary tale of industrial espionage. A conspiracy! Could it be that ULA sabotaged or attacked and destroyed a SpaceX Falcon 9 in a spectacular explosion in broad daylight on the launch pad?! The conspiracy apparently did not happen, but it was one of those things that had people muttering about Elon Musk's sanity for a while. Read about it here.
So how far away was the camera? DaveP
