The charges worked fine. They blew holes in the tanks as planned. The issue is that this didn't cause immediate structural failure as intended. But structural failure of the rocket while flying through upper atmosphere at supersonic speed is not something that you can test on the ground. |

This is the whole of Rocket Science. You can't test for some conditions, you can only test IN them by actually launching a rocket.
I think of it like diving into a pool. There is no way to practice diving into a pool before actually diving in. You learn to dive by diving.
