Second E9-6 out of the pack, slightly different but ultimately the same result.  Rocket got about 20 feet off the pad and the nozzle blew out of the back of the motor.  The rocket continued to climb lazily as the fuel burned without the nozzle in place, then arced over and accelerated back to the dirt, significant damage sustained.  Loss
