On March 20th, my son-in-law, Chris, and I went to an experimental rocket site in the Mojave desert to see some launches. The top two pictures are of a rocket that worked. It took off, hovered, went up to over 1000 feet above the ground, came back down, and landed in the exact same spot it took off from.
The bottom two pictures are of a rocket that didn't do as programed. It was turned off in mid flight by the range safety officer when it started moving toward the peanut gallery in poorly controlled flight.
