The explosion of the R16's first stage fuel supply fed a ferocious fire (Credits USSR) Common Causes of Space Disasters There are some common traits to all spaceflight accidents a defective design, complacency about existing safety measures , and a management failure When the launch pad was being prepared to bring yet another surprise to the west, the ignition switch was triggered a matter of seconds early resulting in a fire that would sweep the launch pad and claim the lives of several top scientists and officials involved in the project including Mitrofan Nedelin, then commander of the R16 rocket's R16 rocket exploded on its launch pad on , 30 minutes before launch Up to 126 people were killed in the explosion The details of the tragedy were classified;
