T' fifth flight o' Masten Space Systems XA-0.1B-750 single engine rocket vehicle o' awesomeness. Begad! Here it gets a slight case o' t' vapors and does what we call a "hard abort", ya bilge rat, in which it shuts down t' engine and vents both propellant tanks. Well, blow me down! In off-tether flight operations this is how t' vehicle would be safely crashed, if it were t' go off course or otherwise lose its mind. Avast! On tether, arrr, it simply hangs out in mid air for a moment in t' style o' Wile E. Aye aye! Coyote, then falls t' t' end o' t' strap and bounces a bit.
