The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency announced that the H3 rocket, whose first launch attempt ended in failure, was successfully launched on the second attempt. The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) announced that the second launch attempt of the H3 rocket, developed jointly with Mitsubishi, was successfully completed. It was reported that the version of the H3 rocket with an improved ignition system took off at 09:22 local time from the Tanegashima Space Center in Kagoshima prefecture. It was stated that the H3 rocket carried an artificial satellite and two operational microsatellites into orbit.
It will increase competitiveness by reducing costs
Initially scheduled to be launched into space in 2020 but delayed due to a change in engine design, the H3 rocket, which is known as Japan’s flagship carrier rocket and successor to the H2A, was developed. The H3, designed to carry approximately 1.3 times more payload into space and expected to halve launch costs, is predicted to create a wide range of commercial demand, including sending satellites into space for overseas organizations. The state-of-the-art rocket system H3, developed to compete internationally in space transportation, relies on liquid fuel technology.
The launch was postponed
The second launch of the H3 rocket was planned for Thursday but was postponed to today due to adverse weather conditions. The first launch attempt of the H3 rocket was carried out on March 7, 2023, at 10:37 local time at the Tanegashima Space Center in Kagoshima prefecture. It was announced that the rocket’s self-destruct command was given around 10:52 after it was understood that the second-stage engine of the launched rocket did not work.
