That explosion does not appear to take place in outer space but much closer up.

I saw my share of them explode in mid air by command detonation when I lived on base as a kid. Small world. That wouldn't have been around the early 60's would it?

Ah, I was a few years ahead of you then. The family left Vandenberg when my dad retired in ‘63. I would have been about 16 years old. To this day I can remember the rumble and roar; the occasional explosion and the rare treat of wind blown debris falling back to ground.

Yep. I distinctly remember watching a missile launch from the front yard and it started heading inland soon after launch. I’m guessing it was at about 10,000 feet when it was command detonated. A remnant of one of the stages sliced through the roof of a trailer in Lompoc and came to rest over the top of a baby crib- no injuries, fortunately. Missile tests and failures were fairly common then.

Wow. Those news chatterers are just brilliant, aren’t they. The possibilities that they posit are just so reasonable and likely. /s
