NASA will never recover from this.

Forward seal failure. Poop happens. Then you build another one.

[GoRideaMTN]

nice stills, and jmar, it was the foward aft closure which had failed, the heisenberg compensator thus released the h2o2 gas, overwhelming the pressure servos which in turn ignited the propellant, producing this spectacular splendor..

[jmar1371]

The forward aft closure? Is that the one in front of the back, or in back of the front? Or is it to one side of the middle?

And exactly where does the Heisenberg compensator mount in that solid propellant motor?

Hey GoRideaMTN... GoReadaBOOK.

[GoRideaMTN]

well pardon my french, but you're quite the rough customer! Any ignoramus would know that i was referring to the aft closure in the foward portion of the hybridized dual compression-controlled expansion chambers. and furthermore the brilliant heisenberg compensator is commonly located on the starbord side to cross balance the weight of the vaporizer pump on the port. well i say, ... Mr. fancy level three.. GoBuyaHeisenbergCompensator!

An ignoramous might, but those of us with an education... We don't have the foggiest WTF you're babbling about.

You might consider cutting back on the Barney's Breakfast Bar.

the barneys breakfast bars do give me explosive gas

[jmar1371]

I hate when that happens!

[FOAD911]

actually,looking at the rocket in that video,you can see the fault on the body.Its never should have been launched in that condition.

[zanhecht]

Actually, no, the body was perfectly fine. The ejection charge, which is supposed to separate the two halves of the rocket, fired early due to a bad o-ring in the motor. The rocket came apart exactly where it was supposed to, it just did it about 30 seconds too early.

[whitetailshooter]

lol next time dont do it on a windy day lol

[vigi86]

how sad... hehe

[Nintendo64freak]

it looked like u didnt put enough flame paper stuff in it it caught fire and exploded

[Dratiniii]

it looks like you guys are a bit close

[thejanitor99]

Sad. So much potential. Did you make that yourself? If you did, then well done.

[Emericaskater17]

it sounded kew

[minga86]

nice camera work. how large was the motor?

[zanhecht]

It was a reloadable H (H80 IIRC).

[VooDooRocketry]

Both ends of the motor are burning, SU is a bad delay grain, RMS would be a blown forward closure. Motors shouldn't burn from both ends, it blows off the payload section at speed.

[CrazyAbe101]

OMG! it made me cry!

[methylene5]

LOL, he was a beautiful rocket, at least he's in a better place now.

[Pycman5]

LOL they try to make it sad

[PabloTurk]

how did u made the rocket??? with powder? kno3? or what

[jmar1371]

He used what.

[lippschitts]

this vid is hilarious

[gorillagirlgorilla]

I think the maker used a really powerful motor while having a week frame.

The rocket noze opened taking the parashute out and that caused the rocet to spin and just crumble.

Next time choose a tougher frame and balance it before hand.

Nice motor though.

[zanhecht]

No, the frame was perfectly strong enough for the motor. In fact, the frame can take a motor twice as powerful. In fact, the next person to lauch had the exact same frame and the exact same motor, and he was sucessful.

As I posted in the description, the motor itself exploded.

[EggYolk]

woah did u see it like bending? crazy

[Ranger4321]

that is some impressive shooting from the camera guy! props to you

[hmmcrunchy]

bet that was a bit annoying!
