The Space X rocket has exploded on the launch pad at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

Space X is a company that designs, manufactures and launches advanced rockets and spacecraft.

The company say no-one has been hurt but we don’t know why the blast happened.

Smoke was still coming from the site a day later and the blast shook buildings several miles away.

NASA say Space X were planning to use the rocket to take a satellite into space but the satellite and the rocket have both been destroyed.
