Wow Must Have Been a COOL Blast. :-)

Their Fault!

"The propellants used by the rocket are highly toxic. Possible environmental contamination at the crash site is a particular concern, an insurance company spokesman said. The rocket came down in the central Kazakh steppe, 50 kilometers (30 miles) southeast of the town of Dzhezkazgan, and a team has been sent there to determine the extent of any pollution." That is the Russian Space Agency's fault,because they didn't create a less toxic-powered variant of the Proton Rocket. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.106.192.163 (talk) 06:37, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
