NASA's Wallops Flight Facility
The Orbital Sciences Corp.'s Antares rocket lifted off to start its third resupply mission to the International Space Station, but suffered a catastrophic anomaly shortly after liftoff at 6:22 p.m. EDT. No injuries have been reported, and Orbital reports that all personnel around the Wallops Flight Facility launch site have been accounted for. NASA will continue to provide additional updates as they become available. A press conference is scheduled for 8:30 p.m. EDT and will be carried live on NASA Television.

This is why they make sure the range is clear before they launch.
They were quite evasive and actually cut audio when asked about the science that was carried. And, would not comment at all about the supplies other then saying that there is enough already aboard ISS to last until March.
So, who knows what the hell they were sending up there.
