In this handout photo from Relativity Space obtained on March 10, 2023, the Terran 1 rocket can be seen on the launch pad at Launch Complex 16 in Cape Canaveral, Fla.The first launch attempt, on Wednesday, was aborted at the one-minute mark because of a bad valve.At 110 feet , the rocket is relatively small. Relativity Space said 85% of the rocket, including its engines, came out of its huge 3D printers at company headquarters in Long Beach, California.
