Dnepr launch fails
This was the same booster that just ten days ago carried Genesis-1.
Boy, did THEY didge a space bullet! Russian news story at http://www.gazeta.ru/2006/07/27/last209612.shtml time: Moscow, 00:14 [GMT 20:14] Engines off at 86 seconds, during second stage firing -- this surprises me, I thought first stage lasted a bit longer. nothing on the Kosmotras site http://www.kosmotras.ru/

Didge or dodge, this launch
looks scary -- because the rocket was headed south when it fell back, perhaps near the residential or industrial area... "Jim Oberg" wrote in message ...

Dnepr launch fails
They SAY it fell far to the south, near the Uzbek border...
the original '25 kilometers' number referred to the downrange point when the booster failed -- it was already high and fast at that point and kept going. "Jim Oberg" wrote in message ...
