Nautical institute has revealed through a report that parts of previously launched rocket fell close to a ship.
A car carrier, far from land, was making way towards its destination. Suddenly, parts of a previously launched rocket fell into the water quite close to the vessel. After investigation, it was found that the rocket debris ‘fall prediction area’ had been published in a NAVAREA message. Unfortunately, the ship’s crew had neglected to position the area on the chart and were unaware they were running into danger.
