See Chinese rocket crash after accidentally launching
This video shows the moment a rocket in China was accidentally launched into the sky after a ground test went wrong on June 30th. The test malfunctioned due to a structural failure where the rocket detached from the launchpad. It began to turn downwards and plummet towards the hills outside the city of Gong Yi, causing a large explosion. No injuries have been reported, according to the company's Space Pioneer. This crash comes just days after China's historic lunar probe returned to Earth after retrieving their first ever samples from the far side of the moon.
