The April flight lasted three minutes and got 39 km high, while this flight lasted eight minutes and got 148 km high. What do you mean the mission was shorter? Anyway, it's always a little funny when they explode.

It was shorter than any kind of a real mission would be, mainly because of less payload/fuel. The first flight wasn't supposed to last only 3 minutes.

Oh okay so you were comparing this to a real mission, gotcha.
