Experts opinion about failure Of North Korea Launch
Experts on military technology are examining the possible causes of the failure of the missile, which North Korea had called a satellite-carrying rocket.One said the problem may have occurred when the missile was flying straight upward before the first stage was jettisoned. The expert referred to a report that larger-than-usual flames were observed.Experts said this suggests that some liquid fuel may have leaked, or that there was an explosion inside the rocket engine when it was fed too much fuel.
The expert said another possibility is that North Korea may have intentionally detonated the missile to deal with some kind of problem.
Another expert said the trouble probably began in the first stage before separation or during separation, because the first and second stages usually separate about 2 minutes after lift-off.
The person said launching a three-stage missile requires meticulous control, and questioned whether North Korea possessed this capability.South Korea says North Korea appears to have failed in its launch of what the North calls a satellite-carrying rocket.
A South Korean Defense Ministry spokesman made the announcement at a news conference on Friday.
He said South Korea's military confirmed the launch at 7:39 AM. He said the lift-off took place at Tongchang-ri, Pyongan-pukdo, in North Korea's northwest.The spokesman said analysis by the South Korean and US militaries confirmed that the projectile disintegrated a few minutes after the launch and fell into the sea.
The ministry said debris has fallen into the Yellow Sea, about 200 kilometers off Gunsan in the western part of South Korea. The South Korean military is trying to collect the pieces with US troops.Media agencies
