Correction:
NORAD is calling the splashdown at 165 km west of Seoul, that is well off the planned flight path. Confirms my earlier report that the flash was seen due west of the DMZ.

So there is a truth to the SK report that NK pushed a self-destruct button because rocket veered way off course. 165km to the West of Seoul? The rocket could have hit Shanghai. Imagine it actually happened. What a catastrophe it could have been.

Unconfirmed:
At 151 km altitude the single track became 4 tracks and an explosion, then 20 tracks at splashdown.
I agree with you that is was an intended abort as it was way off track.

I am hopeful that something like STUXNET messed up the rocket’s guidance system.:-)

Time to hire Sarah Jessica Parker...on second thought maybe not. She does not have a face that would launch much.

The only thing that I would have found more pleasing than the rocket’s failure would have been its (apparent) success—followed, immediately, by its being shot down by South Korea or Japan...

Ah, Iran bought 3 Chinese ICBMs. Where do you think NKorea got their missile tech from? China covertly sells to NK. NK sells to Iran. China gets plausible deniability. All evil dictators end up happy.
If Iran is indeed buying directly from China, all it means is the ChiComs are getting more brazen about things.

DPRK just announced a satellite launch failure. They know they’re caught, amazing that they aren’t spinning it.

Can’t do it any other way. They invited so many journalists. Whoever proposed this media stunt-turned-fiasco is now in deep trouble.
