Japan’s rocket launch attempt ended in failure as the rocket exploded just a few seconds after liftoff. This is the second unsuccessful attempt by Japan’s space industry in sending a rocket into space. The rocket, named Kairos, faced the same fate as its first attempt, causing frustration within the Japanese administration. It is reported that the Space One company, which developed the rocket, will undergo numerous new improvements to prevent such incidents in the future. The accident has also led to a significant morale decline among the public. Here are the key details…
Japan suffers a major setback in space exploration!
The exact cause of the explosion during liftoff of the seemingly well-equipped Kairos rocket is still not fully known. If this rocket launch had been successful, Japan would have sent its first dedicated satellite into space, which could have played a crucial role in intelligence gathering. The timing of the next launch attempt has not been determined yet.
In a previous space mission conducted by the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency in January, a satellite was successfully sent to the Moon, but it only survived for one day. Additionally, the H3, a next-generation rocket, also exploded during a test flight. The explosions of these rockets, which were produced at high costs, are said to have caused significant damage to the country’s economy.
Despite these recent failures, it is rumored that the Japanese government will increase its investments in space exploration. This is because neighboring countries like China and North Korea have the potential to pose military threats by utilizing space technologies.
