Summary
| Description |
English: An attempt to launch a Juno II rocket from Launch Complex 5 at the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station (serial number AM-16) fails spectacularly, as a short circuit of the power supply to the launch vehicle's guidance system causes the rocket to tilt dramatically westward immediately after launch. Five-and-a-half seconds later, the vehicle was destroyed by Range safety, along with the S-1 satellite aboard. |
