Here is some video of a Super Strypi launch from Kauai that failed on Tuesday. Super Strypi is a new launch vehicle developed by Aerojet Rocketdyne and Sandia National Laboratories in cooperation with the Defense Department’s Office of Operationally Responsive Space. The University of Hawaii was also involved in the launch, which carried 13 small satellites.

UPDATE: The U.S. Air Force has released the following statement:

“The ORS-4 mission on an experimental Super Strypi launch vehicle failed in mid-flight shortly after liftoff at 5:45 p.m. Hawaii Standard Time (7:45 p.m. PST; 10:45 p.m. EST) today from the Pacific Missile Range Facility off Barking Sands, Kauai, Hawaii. Additional information will be released as it becomes available.”
