No one was injured, but the accident could ground SpaceX for weeks or months, depending on its cause and the extent of damage to Launch Complex 40.

It was the second time in just over a year that SpaceX has lost a Falcon 9 rocket, which is slated to launch NASA astronauts for the first time as soon as next year.

Several members of Congress on Thursday expressed support for the company led by tech visionary Elon Musk, and industry analysts said the event was unlikely to derail SpaceX or the emerging commercial space industry it represents over the long-term.

“It’s a new era,” said Marco Caceres, an analyst with the Teal Group in Fairfax, Virginia. “The era where NASA is the only or the dominant player, we’re transitioning away from that. The Elon Musks, the Jeff Bezoses of the world, they’re here to stay, I think.”

Dick Rocket, CEO and founder of Cape Canaveral-based New Space Global, said the loss of the rocket and satellite was a “significant setback for #SpaceX, but not a lasting one for the industry.”

“If anyone on this planet can recover from this, it’s Elon Musk,” he said.

SpaceX said it was investigating the accident.

Things went wrong at 9:07 a.m. as SpaceX fueled the 230-foot Falcon 9 during a practice countdown, part of preparations for a planned early Saturday launch of a communications satellite for Israeli company #Spacecom.
