Dunno. It looks like the force was with them, but they weren't quiet
ready for the Force.


It is obvious that there was some kind of force with them, but it sure was
not a "rocket friendly" force! g

I thought that perhaps one engine ignited about 3/4th of a second late,
(visible on one the first few frames after takeoff) and also thought that it
was perhaps not aerodynamically stable. Maybe some lead in the nose, or a
little larger fins?
