Saw some diagram and it seems after the kick it has an additional burn to get it into a graveyard orbit instead of goong to mars along the payload. Maybe that burn which failed

The blog post I linked to in my previous comment suggests differently. Do you happen to know where you saw that diagram? Since I'm working on space debris, I'm curious what the target graveyard orbit is if it's not escaping.
