NASA blows up rocket.

The jet had been scheduled to make its maiden flight over the Pacific Ocean. A B-52 was to carry it and a Pegasus rocket over the ocean, where the rocket would have ignited and boosted the experimental plane to approximately 100,000 feet before releasing it.

MAN!! BUFF's ROCK!!! B-52's are expected to continue flying for another quarter of a century.
