alt Hacker News> A source indicated that one of the lightning towers may not be salvageable, and that the transporter-erector may also be damaged beyond repair.
My first thought is why wasn't the t-e moved away before launch?

It was a static fire, not a launch. Also means that payload was not lost as out wasn’t yet integrated

Blue’s TEL is part of the launch pad. You can see it retract in some of the explosion videos.
