Summary edit

Description

Just after ignition, as the motor came up to pressure, it blew the nozzle... And so all the lit propellant grains splayed out across the playa and burned out.

I thought the rocket looked familiar. Last year, the P-Motor CATO’d on the pad, and shot a <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/jurvetson/2897912258/">visible shock wave</a> across the playa. Ka-POW !!!!
