Japan’s H3 rocket failure!

The launch of Japan's H3 rocket on Tuesday morning, local time in Tanegashima, failed after the vehicle's second-stage engine did not ignite.
This failure is a blow to its efforts to cut the cost of accessing space and compete against Elon Musk's SpaceX.
Find everything about that in today’s episode of Alpha Tech:
After a decade in development and a last-second abort on its first launch attempt last month, the H3 rocket was loaded with super-cold liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen Monday as the countdown smoothly ticked down to liftoff at 8:37:55 p.m. EST. The rocket’s two core stage engines ignited in the final seconds of the countdown, then two strap-on solid rocket boosters lit to propel the H3 off the launch pad at the Tanegashima Space Center.
Riding 1.6 million pounds of thrust, the H3 rocket quickly vaulted off its launch pad at Tanegashima, located on a bluff overlooking the Pacific Ocean on the southwestern part of the Japanese island chain.
The rocket’s design builds on propulsion technology used on Japan’s earlier generation of H-2A and H-2B rockets, but its twin LE-9 core stage engines use a new engine cycle and produce more thrust than the engines used on previous Japanese launch vehicles. Problems with the new main engine for the H3 rocket were largely to blame for delays in its first flight from 2020.
