Again undershoot. Japanese private rocket exploded almost immediately after launch

65
Japanese media reported another failed launch of a private rocket. This is a rocket company Interstellar Technologies Inc., whose name - MOMO. Start the company tried to implement without the participation of the Japanese Aerospace Agency. Just a few seconds after the launch of the 10-meter rocket exploded in the air, flying several kilometers.

Снова недолёт. Японская частная ракета взорвалась почти сразу после старта




With the help of a rocket, the Japanese were trying to bring a spacecraft. His appointment for the moment is kept secret.

It should be noted that this is the second unsuccessful attempt to launch the MOMO rocket. The first start took place last July 30. Then a rocket weighing about a ton was launched from the launch pad on the island of Hokkaido. After a few seconds, the control center stopped receiving telemetry information, the flight ceased to be controlled, which led to the need to urgently stop the engine. As a result, the rocket went into a state of free fall from a height of approximately 20 thousand meters. After some time, the rocket fell into the Quiet at a distance of about 6-7 km from the launch site.

A private company tried to use the rocket for research purposes, as well as for the commercialization of flights. Currently, Interstellar Technologies Inc. continues to incur losses due to unsuccessful starts. The amount of damages is currently not reported, nor is it reported when the next start is expected.

        Does Eun have private missile-building offices? I look Friday did not pass in vain wassat And the Japanese aerospace agency is doing a couple of orders better than Eun, so who and whom to learn from there is still a very big question.

          Well, how can I say, Trump does not aspire to Japan, everything is under control for a long time and they pay tribute as expected .. But the DPRK is a closed country and, as I recall a couple of years ago, some comrades here convinced us that the people were starving there and almost eating grass ..An Eun surprised everyone, he created nuclear weapons and the carriers are also good for such a small country .. I won’t be surprised if they explode into space in the near future .. They have the appropriate technologies and scientists, I’m sure of that! And South Korea, compared with North Korea, ordinary slaves, although they eat more rice than neighbors .. They envy them of their independence and stamina! Well done Eun .., act the same ..!

          But the satellite is also made by a private company. If we talk about the United States, then there is even a ULA private if that, because this is Boeing + Lockheed. In Europe, Thales (one of the satellite manufacturers) is also a completely private company. Astrium (Thales rival) - Watermelon. Arian-5 - the space department of Arbuzik + Safran.

          Even in China, a private rocket went flying. In China! Yes, in the light class.

          Big players (who play in 9-20 tons) - Musk, Bezos, ULA and Watermelon + Safran now.
          Musk - improves his Falcon and in the background is working on a new generation.
          Bezos - actively making his NewGlenn. From which Musk is pretty sweating and investing millions in the otvetochka. The new BE-4 methane engines have been developed for the rocket. If he reaches the promised indicators, then the Mask will have to step aside the launch market, the collapse will be at the level of Roscosmos 2013-2016.

          ULA - they are actively making their Volcano, on BE-4 engines. It will be less effective than Bezos, but megacorporations have more than such efficiency. They won the 4 Delta with the space appraiser manage to lobby in 450-500 million for the 1 launch.
          Watermelon and Safran, who joined, are trying to save the drowning Arian5 by actively making the economical and cheap Arian6. Not really yet.

    Do you really need such a carrier now? ultra-light class let's say so. Run one cubsat and all?

      Plus accident rate. If RN is rolled back normally, then the probability of failure will be less. On the bus, small satellites have a high% of accidents.

      Well and most importantly - to create an adult rocket with your own money = very expensive. It is possible for Bezos = = but he is the richest man in the World. The Mask can do it. This is within the power of anyone who wants / will be able to invest a couple of billion of personal money. But you can build a light rocket with a relatively low budget. And it is already more accessible, easier and faster.

        As for the cost and waiting time, you are absolutely right. But serial production of ultralight media is needed if there is a great need for them, as well as several launch pads, which also entails considerable costs. Accident rate depends on the launch vehicle, Musk launches 10 satellites without any problems now, the Iridium contract ends, contracts for small things appear, considering that Block 5 will fly almost every week. waiting will not be critical. Also, for mass production, investments are not small. Still, a compromise option is to create not an ultra-light carrier, but a light-weight one with ICBMs. The ICBM conversion program in Russia is coming to an end; private traders can easily take this niche.

    In recent years, a trend has become increasingly apparent. The segment of ultralight launch vehicles designed to output mini-, micro- and other nanosatellites is beginning to shift towards private companies. Our similar company is ready to take part in this race, because the market for such launches is becoming more extensive. But funds are needed in the range of 10-20 million greens. However, private owners of Roscosmos are not profitable to support. It’s easier to do nothing in this direction, but to use old schemes

    I need it. The market for such launches is growing from year to year. And it’s not always beneficial for the satellite operator to launch such satellites in the form of “passing cargo” on “large carriers, the launch cost of which sometimes reaches 50-100 million.
