Astra is trying for launch today, after an earlier hold:
9 minutes and counting.
UPDATE: That was a pretty launch.
UPDATE II: But it failed to reach orbit.

If you're one of the Covidiots who believe that COVID-19 is "just the flu",
that the 2020 election was stolen, or
especially if you supported the 1/6/21 insurrection,
leave now.

COMMENT MODERATION IS IN EFFECT UFN. This means that if you are an insulting dick, nobody will ever see it.
I admit that I studied Rocket Engineering at Estes U., but shouldn't that rocket have fins on it? To stabilize just this sort of thing.
ReplyDeleteSeems their testing strategy is weak.
ReplyDeleteSecond stage early shutdown is poor. Shame it took
two sats.
Interesting small launcher, barely larger than V2 at 38ft
tall about 4ft in diameter, better performing at the
first stage level and with added second stage.
Once they get it right it could be a cheap launch to
Low orbit for small payloads.
Eck!
Gravity, it has a lot of pull.
