U.S. officials confirmed that North Korea launched a long-range missile Thursday.
Officials also said that the launch failed. Meaning the rocket broke up shortly after leaving the launch pad.
North Korean officials say the rocket was going to put a satellite into space. But others worry it could have the capacity to reach Hawaii or other targets.
U.S. officials say the rocket did not land on any populated areas. They believe the rocket may have fallen into the ocean.
