Japan’s second attempt to launch its next-generation H3 rocket failed after lift-off on Tuesday, with the spacecraft forced to self-destruct after the command centre concluded the mission could not succeed.
The failure is a blow for Japan’s space agency JAXA, which has billed the rocket as a flexible and cost-effective new flagship.
The command centre then announced: “The second stage engine ignition has not been confirmed yet, we continue to confirm the situation.” “My responsibility is to focus on discovering the cause and make efforts to restore confidence in our rockets. JAXA has said it envisions the H3 becoming a workhorse that could be launched six times or so annually for around two decades.
