What the world knows: the rocket failed, they suck again.
What North Korea is telling their citizens: the rocket was a success, it made it to Pluto and we now consider it a planet again.

FAILURE of their rockets is in deed GOOD NEWS to the World of Peace .... So much for using it as a "celebration" of the 100th birthday of a former dictator.

I'm confused. They can build a nuclear weapon, but not a rocket? Does anyone else thinks that's a little backwards?

This was a golden opportunity for the USA to test that new laser system designed to burn holes in rockets and destroy its structural integrity.... Hummm

The North Koreans are learning what rocket science is all about. A lot of failures. What I don't understand is the mentality of the North Koreans to send money and resources they don't have.
