There has been an apparent launch failure of Falcon 1.
Lift off was at 0333UTC. The "rocket cam" on the booster
showed the climb out then the video stream on the web site
went black. At 0338UTC launch control reported an
"anomaly" and details would be posted when they became
available.
This would be SpaceX 3rd attempt to put a payload in orbit.
Spaceflight ain't easy.
73, Armando N8IGJ
