All three flopped spectacularly--one committing an explosive suicide 41 seconds after liftoff, the others misfiring and stranding their satellites in useless orbits. Three other rockets--Lockheed's sleek new Athena 2, and a pair of boosters from Boeing's new Delta 3 class--also conspicuously fizzled. Three of the six failures occurred in the past three weeks alone...

Other miscues have included everything from an electrical short, which caused another Titan to explode, to faulty guidance, which...
