I really wish they wouldn't use that vague BS language.

There was an accident. Something blew up.

I think the deliberately unclear "code" language is cute.

I was taught at the fire academy decades ago that red/brown smoke is probably methyl-ethyl-bad-$hi+ and I should use the RLH factor (run like he!!). We were referring to tanker crashes/spills, but I think it would apply here.

Red smoke = N2H4. RLH is a good idea.

This appears to be much worse. Looks like they have lost the spacecraft.
