"When Orbital Sciences' Antares rocket exploded last year, your only real view at the time was a grainy video.
However, you should now have a much better sense of what happened: NASA has posted large photos from the failed launch on Flickr.
They not only show the incident in exceptional (almost uncomfortable) detail, but do a better job of illustrating the magnitude of what happened.
This was a very large vehicle coming down very quickly, and the impact enveloped much of the launch site in fire and smoke."
