[amsat-bb] Soyuz launch failure. Crew safe!

[Burns Fisher]

Did you see the video from the cockpit and the long-range camera?  It was
pretty clear something happened as the boosters fell off.  WAY too much
stuff falling to be just the boosters.  And the picture in the cockpit
shows the cosmonauts vibrating around like crazy.  The NASA commentator did
not say anything, and then the animation kept showing the velocity going up
and up while you heard on the air-to-ground link "we are weightless now".
