Souce


Unfortunately the rocket of the German space company Rocket Factory Augsburg exploded, it was a rocket that was close to making its first launch from the new SaxaVord spaceport, this spaceport is far north in the Shetland Islands north of Scotland in the Kingdom United.


The rocket exploded during a static fire test, the important thing is that there were no injuries, those in charge of the space company are studying the failure and the launch platform was saved, the rocket measured about 30 meters high and was about 2 meters deep. diameter.




If everything had gone well, the video shows the appearance of both the launch base and the rocket, this space port is located very far north, if it is not the northernmost one in the world right now it will be close to it, which would The thing is that they have not yet launched any rocket, this would be the first one they would launch into space from this base located on some islands north of Scotland.


The rocket was designed to be able to recover its first stage. You know, all rockets except those designed by the European space agency are focused on being as reusable as possible. This one in particular could transport payloads of up to 1.3 metric tons to polar orbits. .


In reality, the entire rocket is full of fuel, explosive, basically it is a tube full of explosive and of course the problem they have, they have to be treated very delicately because if they don't explode.
