La fusée transportant la capsule SpaceX explose après son lancement

The failure is the third involving an ISS cargo mission in eight months. An Orbital Sciences Corp. (now Orbital ATK) Antares rocket failed seconds after liftoff in Oct. 28 from Wallops Island, Virginia, destroying a Cygnus cargo spacecraft. A Progress spacecraft launched April 28 was placed in the wrong orbit by its Soyuz launch vehicle and reentered in May without docking at the ISS.

“We expected through the commercial cargo program that we would lose some vehicles,” said Gerstenmaier. “I didn’t think we’d lose them all in a one-year timeframe, but we have.”
