   And now there's slowly more and more details starting to leak out through   
   unofficial sources.   
      
   It's sounding worse than the initial official reports.   
   Now, on one hand, I fully understand that in the first few hours after an   
   incident information is often poor and details sparse, but I think we're   
   going to learn a lot more in the next 72 hours.   
      
   It's sounding like the decision to old off on the OFT-2 launch is definitely   
   the right decision.
