This is completely off-topic, but I thought you space enthusiast types would find this interesting. It's a video of a Delta II rocket w/ a GPS satellite payload exploding on lift-off. It has to be one of the most massive explosions of a rocket ever recorded.
The video attributes the explosion to a 17 foot long crack in a booster.
A quick google search shows that this happened in '97.
