So how much carbon emissions did this release?

Not much more than if the test was successful. The fuel would have burned either way.

I guess if the rocket hadn't disassembled itself, then it could be used again.
I think static fire is part of the testing to proceed to a launch? So, now they have to build another and static fire that as well in order to get back to where they should be.

And presumably a launch pad
