From continental Europe, an attempt was made to trigger a rocket to the circulating track-exploded

From Europe On Sunday, an attempt was made to trigger a rocket to the circulating track. However, the launch failed, says AFP and British magazine, among others The Guardian.

It was the first such company in continental Europe if Russia was not counted. As early as 2023, Britain’s Virgin Orbit tried.

The Spectrum rocket was attempted to launch the launch center in Andøya, Norway. The rocket was developed by the German startup Isar Aerospace, and it came from almost entirely from commercial players.

The rocket began to smoke shortly after its launch. It fell into the sea and exploded. According to The Guardian, the rocket could fly about half a minute. The rocket was unmanned.

The delivering Aerospace Has said he had not expected that the rocket would get to the circuo of the country immediately with the first attempt. According to the company, there was important information on the failed launch and two other rockets are already under development.

The launch company was postponed several times due to weather conditions.

The launch was part of Europe’s efforts to gain a foothold in a commercial space market, which already operates, for example, in the US SpaceX.
