I've also seen this referenced on Twitter. What's going on? The real-time video on ESA site seems hanged up...

Please provide a link - I've found nothing.

https://mobile.twitter.com/searches?q=vega+explode returns no results.

Edit: Thanks for your link but it just points back to this same page, it's not supporting evidence.

Edit: The alleged "More information" from the same Twitter account is simply a link to what is clearly a computer generated image of a launch. Not credible.

This appears to be a traffic generating scam/hoax.
