(URGENT) North Korea launches long-range rocket

(visit the link for the full news article)

No one expected the launch at this time.
Reports are on CNN's ticker right at this moment.

No reports of it being shot down.

Edit: Twitter has erupted with North Korean Launch Tweets.

South Korean Yonhap news has cameras on the ground and would know if/when it was launched.

STAY TUNED

Here we go.......

so much for a Friday the 13th launch.

This ought to be interesting!

BRB...going to make some popcorn!

Now we get to see if anyone shoots it down. I think they won't. I believe that the rocket really does have an orbiter in it. I don't buy for one second that it's purpose is to study the distribution of North Korea's forests though.

Too bad there isn't a feed. Thanks a lot N. Korea!

Going to be a lot of hungry North Koreans when this is all done. Get ready South. Here come the refugees.

Well so far so good.
Nobody is shooting anything at anyone!
I hope it stays this way.

Has anyone confirmed the flight path?

It was supposed to travel past Australia, but the NK's were claiming the sat was geostationary.

ABC 7 reported a large flareup near the rocket when it was in the air

And so it begins

I also hear on the MSM (not that I believe it) NK was talking about testing another nuke as well....
