Brazillian Rocket Explosion

Post by Space Nerd »

Has anybody heard about this? I found the article while looking through the news today. The unmanned rocket was supposed to carry two satellites into space but exploded and killed 19 people. Read the article its a rather sad end to high hopes of a good launch.......

That is a horrible tragedy. It will probably set them back quite a bit, which is terrible. Another space power would be good to pick up some slack from the struggling NASA.

As for the link, you can do it like this:

Code: Select all

and it will look like this: Brazillian Rocket Explosion
