A rocket startup’s big Florida launch debut ended with all four mini satellites destroyed as the rocket's second stage caught fire in mid-air and burned up.
Astra's Rocket 3.3 lifts off from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, Fla., on Thursday, Feb. 10, 2022. This is the first launch from the Space Coast for the company. Rocket 3.3, carrying four small satellites for NASA, failed shortly after liftoff.
California-based Astra sent its rocket soaring from Cape Canaveral after multiple delays, including a last-second engine shutdown Monday. The 43-foot rocket arced through a clear afternoon sky out over the Atlantic, carrying small research satellites sponsored by NASA.
