Falcon heavy static test scrubbed

More delays in getting this behemoth off the pad

A hardware glitch in one of the hold down arms has delayed the static test
Elon said months ago it would be a miracle if it gets off the pad and reaches orbit
Nothing has changed since trying to get the first test Saturn 5 (Apollo 4) off the pad in 1966
Not even technology helps today

They are dealing with a small atomic bomb on the pad with a precisely controlled explosion until it hits orbit
