Do you by chance know the serial number or mission for the detonation incident? I'm finding four probable bulkhead-reversal failures, and that looks like it might be our Maximum Credible Event for propellant mixing. If it can lead to detonation in LOX-RP1, LOX-methane is going to be interesting.

I'll check my files, but it may be something I heard about rather than reading about, so I may not have a precise reference...
