I didn't see radar until after that time, and no storms looked to be in the area then.Thanks!!! BTW, I hope you aren't in the path of the hurricane. If you are, take care and be safe.

I blew up.
I have been reading all of the speculation, theorys and watching a ton of slow motion videos of a lucky bird flying by the rocket. I have studied this from every angle possible and consulted all of my in the know people and I have figured out, with 100% certainty what went wrong. I blew up.

Therefore it had nothing to do with the rocket, just the surrounding state.Hey, easy on the Florida jokes. Some of us moved here because of the weather.....which, um,....errr.....actually sucks today.OK, go ahead, make Florida jokes.

I think I've found the culprit. Our prior theories were wayward.

On the other hand, had you known ahead of time, you could have done it (*real* good!) on Farm Film Report ...
See, I got it all figured out...Y'see, Spacecom had huge problems, and AMOS-6 was a dead bird, would've never activated on orbit. They set it to fire a rifle shot down into the second stage to blow up the booster, so they can collect on the maritime insurance. With the payload destroyed, no one can inspect it, y'see.It was all an insurance scam... ...obviously just kidding. But with all the black humor in this thread, I figured it couldn't hurt...
I did some CSI work and was able to get a clearer picture of the Bird... Sure looks like a Romulan 3 man fighter... Where is the Enterprise when you need them...
