SpaceX was not leaking so where did the liquid nitrogen come from?

lol I meant liquid oxygen becoming solid.

A piece of solid oxygen ice that formed as the second stage Merlin engine vented liquid oxygen before ignition broke off from a vent and was caught by the exhaust gas manifold that surrounds the engine bell.

The same phenomenon has been seen in previous Falcon 9 launches.

And the same ridiculous claims have been made before by English tabloids and YouTube conspiracy mongers desperate for clicks.

So either the SpaceX rocket is really tiny or the "mouse" is gigantic. Scale is important. Which answer are you choosing, OP?
