The planned launch of an unarmed missile at a Space Force base in California ended in failure with the rocket exploding just seconds after liftoff on Wednesday night.
Just 11 seconds after taking off during a test launch at Santa Barbara's Vandenberg Space Force Base, the Minotaur II+ rocket exploded, raining debris around the launch pad area and igniting a fire on the North Base, local news station KSBY reported.
