Apparently the N. Korean's launched an ICBM carrying a "weather satellite", and this time, as opposed to blowing up in a spectacular failing fashion, actually "worked" (According to the S. Koreans)

The rocket traveled over mainland Japan...so technically, had the N. Korean's wanted, there could have been a third big nuclear boom in Japan (if they have the warheads that is)

but besides that...the N. Korean's have proven they have mastered the technology to build an ICBM...that's not good!
