North Korea's rocket fell apart faster then the cowboys playoff hopes last December.

Quote:
North Korea's long-range rocket failed early Friday, U.S. officials said, calling it a blow for the reclusive state's propaganda efforts.

The rocket broke up about 90 seconds after taking off, an official told NBC News.

The rocket was launched from Tongchang-ri, on North Korea's west coast and flew about 75 miles, Japanese broadcaster NHK said.

The South Korean army said rocket debris crashed off Kunsan, home to a U.S. air base on South Korea's west coast.

NORAD, the North American Aerospace Defense Command, said the rocket's first stage fell into the sea and two other stages failed.
