Japan’s flagship H3 rocket, the first new medium-lift launcher the country has developed in three decades, failed to lift off on February 17, 2023. Two secondary booster engines strapped to the side of the rocket reportedly did not ignite and its main engine cut off after the launch countdown had reached Zero. The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency said it was investigating the failure.
