Flop for SpaceX

ZUMA did not zoom.

The launch of the spy satellite aboard SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket was a bust, according to a report Monday.

The mystery payload failed to hold a low orbit and likely plunged through the Earth’s atmosphere after being launched Sunday from Florida’s Space Coast, The Wall Street Journal reported, citing sources close to the bungled mission.

The top-secret government spacecraft was believed to be worth billions, the newspaper reported.

Officials with SpaceX, the private aerospace manufacturer led by Tesla mogul Elon Musk, declined to comment on the nature of the mission.
