Boom!

Explosive abort for SpaceX:

A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket exploded in a "catastrophic abort" during a test firing of the engines on the launch pad Thursday morning. The unmanned rocket exploded during a static test firing, officials said. It was expected to launch a [$95M] satellite for Facebook this weekend.
