And I thought a little wiggle on the way up was a bad corkscrew! LOL

Man, thats gotta hurt.
 
I think I remember reading something about that; I think they were testing a new suppository?
 
Good thing NUKES are not impact detonated....
or armed till they home in for the kill....


Of course if that is a test launch... it must be carrying a dummy warhead.
 
I've been searching for the source site, but so far nada. I can't even remember the page it came off of, but Instability due to shear was what was suggested.

Of course, I'm of a mind that Shamu farted just as the rocket was launched...
