TOKYO: Japans area firm JAXA suffered another problem on Tuesday when their next-generation H3 rocket stopped working after liftoff
The very first phase separation appeared to go as prepared, however quickly later on, indications of problem emerged
The command centre provided a destruct command after signs of problem emerged following the very first phase separation.The 57-metre (187
ft) tall H3 rocket, established by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and introduced from the Tanegashima area port, was carrying the ALOS-3
catastrophe management satellite and a speculative infrared sensing unit
It seems that the speed is boiling down, announcers on the JAXA live feed stated, with the command centre then revealing: The second phase
engine ignition has not been validated yet, we continue to verify the scenario
This failure comes after the rocket failed to lift off on its first shot last month, dealing a blow to JAXAs aspirations
The rocket was meant to introduce an observation satellite, and had been seen as a potential competitor to SpaceXs Falcon 9
There is presently no explanation for the reason for the failure
