Do you think that they can success? If the missile fail and fall to a urban area, what would happen?

Agreed .

If it gets more than 5 foot from the ground i will be surprised.

Didn't they do this a few years ago back in 2009?

I remember something on it and they said it succeeded in being launched into orbit. But from what most intel. says it was probably just a dummy made to look like a real satellite. So basically North Korea is launching propaganda pieces/space junk into orbit and calling them functioning satellites.

This x1000000. The last rocket didn't get that far either. haha

Some NK civilians don't have to starve to death any more.

Odds are the missile will travel hundreds of miles after launch and it wont fall within NK boundries.

their fatass leader is looking for new source of food

Wait for it......wait.......

North Korea is best Korea!

This kind of reminds me of what happened in the game "Homefront".

They have urban areas in North Korea?

[justicar5]

don't you mean 'NK is having a ballistic missile test and leaving the payload in orbit?'

It's their Sputnik moment; North Korean pizzas can now be delivered intercontinentally - if the package doesn't arrive in half an hour, delivery is free.

Talking about pizza, did you know that pizza was invented in Korea?



Maybe the rocket will create a pizza delivery system in orbit, so that pizza can easily be delivered to every country on Earth within just a few seconds. This is how North Korea might try to save its economy, by doing what it does best: make "picha."

Wait a minute! They left that piece of trash into space? What if it crashes into ISS and kill international astronauts?

Given the amount of junk already up their, (old booster stages, dead soviet cosmonauts, random bits that fell off/got dropped, frozen urine, failed satellites etc) that a few more pounds of junk makes no difference.

I don't know if you were kidding or not, but if North Korea has a hard enough time getting their missiles to launch without problems then I doubt they'd have the expertise to put up something that could hit the ISS, not to mention the nerve.

They agree to terms for the US to feed their people, based on nuclear concessions, but also in acting responsible. I cannot believe I actually thought they could.

I mean, they could actually be launching a satellite, but this is what happens when you no longer deserve the benefit of the doubt.

I think the fatty just want to show to his people who are the boss here.
