NASA Rocket Explodes 6 seconds after launch - Twitchin Kitten - 10-29-2014
Unmanned NASA-contracted rocket explodes over eastern Virginia <-- click for story
I was sleeping with the TV on early this morning and saw this with sleepy eyes and sleepy brain. I thought at first they were sending an unmanned missile over to the Mid-east to teach those ISIS assholes a lesson.
Then I realized that idiot president doesn't have those kind of stones and even if he did, those retards over there would retaliate by wiping out Israel.
I've been to the Wallops Island facility a couple times. It's pretty cool and they have some fun 'space stuff' to play with.

I didn't even know they launched shit out of Va.
If they had any balls they would blame the explosion on ISIS terrorists and then open fucking season on them.

I like looking at the massive explosions. I'm happy as hell that no one got hurt but I really like looking at explosions.

The bit of debris going off in a spiral in the one video made me chuckle a little.
Hate saying that but it's true

It's a bad week for space travel. Virgin Galactic lost spaceship 2 today.

It were easy everyone would be doing it. Too bad someone got killed in the spaceship 2 crash.
