... Crashed? Into what at 119 miles up?
Maybe it is a translation error and it lost control or, huh, exploded?

I’m sure there’s another ready to go...but no one is every happy when something like this happens.
To: McGruff
crashed at the altitude of 190 kilometers (118 miles) That's pretty hard to do...............usually aircraft crash at an altitude of 0............

I think 119 miles is about right for it to blow up when it ‘crashed’ back into the atmosphere.

When your computer crashes....It doesn't mean it fell of the desk.
Not really too hard to figure out their wording.
To: Red Badger
AGL maybe. Around here planes can crash at 10 thousand feet ASL.

“Crashed? Into what at 119 miles up?”
At that speed, the atmosphere.
Kinda like belly-flopping onto water from the Golden Gate Bridge. Like concrete at that speed & surface area.

I’m in Florida.
My current altitude above sea level is about 12 feet.................

Now wait a minute, are they saying the rocket crashed 190 kilometers up in the sky? I know the Tuva district has mountains, but none are that high.
