Here's one for the history books; the Eris spacecraft became the first orbital rocket to launch from Australian soil, and exploded 14 seconds after takeoff.

We're a proud people us Aussies, but maybe we should stick to wrestling crocodiles and breakdancing.

Space travel is hard, most started off with a few explosion before they got it right. And it is the way engineering goes. At first you test not to see success, but to learn how things work.
