This is a bummer, from news reports it sounds like this was a resupply mission to the ISS, and it was the highest weight that particular rocket had ever lifted.

This is a bummer, from news reports it sounds like this was a resupply mission to the ISS, and it was the highest weight that particular rocket had ever lifted. I doubt the payload had anything to do with the launch failure, but it seems like pushing on the edges of its design might have been a factor, but we'll see.
I always hate seeing stuff like this happen, rocket science is hard.
