"SpaceX's Innovative Emergency Escape Slide Revolutionizes Astronaut Launch Safety"

SpaceX has tested a new emergency-escape slide at Space Launch Complex 40 (SLC-40) in Florida, designed to quickly evacuate astronauts in the event of an emergency before liftoff. The slide, resembling an amusement park ride, is part of SpaceX's effort to certify SLC-40 for astronaut launches. The recent test is a step towards this goal, as SpaceX has launched numerous missions from SLC-40, with another scheduled for Thursday, March 21.
