Relationship of Worldwide Rocket Launch Crashes with Geophysical Parameters

Table 2

The attained levels of significance (𝑃-values) for relationships between launch failures at various launch sites and geomagnetic activity (italic data indicate the occurrence of statistically significant relationships if apriori significance level α has been chosen to be 0.05).
