Wakayama, Aug 26 (News On Japan) –
A personal small rocket named ‘Kairos,’ which exploded 5 seconds after takeoff throughout its March launch, is now set to make one other try in December from a web site in Kushimoto Town, Wakayama Prefecture.
Space One, the corporate behind the launch, revealed that the failure was because of the rocket’s thrust being decrease than anticipated, stopping it from reaching the mandatory velocity.
Endo Mamoru, a director at Space One, defined, “The rocket could not reach the required speed and position, leading to an automatic flight abort and self-destruction, which prevented the mission from being completed.”
Space One has recognized the reason for the failure and is now getting ready for a second launch, concentrating on December from the identical launch web site in Kushimoto.
