Marcus House's rocket year in review.

My favourite would be at 21:22 when Astra, with a five engine rocket giving a 1.25 thrust to weight ratio, fails an engine just after lift off. The maths works out - with only 4 out of 5 engines working, you get a reduced ratio of 1:1 until enough fuel mass has burnt off - so it just wanders off sideways.
