First launch of a launch vehicle in 29 years failed in Japan – H3 rocket failed to break off from launch pad, reports DEA News.
live broadcast Youtube channel The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) was suspended, but the agency’s experts reported that the launch vehicle’s main engine was firing normally.
It was announced that the accelerators did not start working at the scheduled time – while the cause of the incident was clarified, the launch was delayed.
The H3 launch vehicle is a representative of a new generation of heavy-class rockets designed to transport four to six and a half tons of cargo into space. Prior to this, the launch of the rocket was delayed several times due to unsuitable weather conditions.
In early October 2022, the Japan Aerospace Agency (JAXA) decided destroy Rocket with satellites after launch.
