Antares Cygnus CRS Orb-3 Cargo Rocket Launch explosion | NASA.TV LIVE

This was taken from the live NASA feed on USTREAM

The mission was scheduled to launch on October 27, 2014 at 22:45 UTC, with rendezvous and berthing with the ISS early in the morning on November 2. The launch was scrubbed due to safety concerns of a boat entering the zone too close to the launch. A 24 hour delay was scheduled, with launch at 22:22:38 UTC on October 28, 2014.
This would have been the first night-time launch for both the Antares launcher and Cygnus spacecraft. Unfortunately, a failure occured 6 seconds after launch, resulting in the loss of the vehicle and substantial property damage, but no injuries to any personel.
