MAP: The Trajectory Of North Korea's Rocket

While it did not send a satellite into orbit as North Korea claims, it did travel around 1,600 miles, which many consider significant progress. Here's a map of the rocket's trajectory from Japan's NHK news. It shows where the first and second stage fell. Please follow Military & Defense on Twitter and Facebook.
