UK's Rocket Launched From Aircraft Failed like US's Artemis II
#1

Now I'm just curious what the slump-rats from EDMW and our very own Suck Angmo Cock gang got to say ... what's most shameful Virgin Orbit initially tweeted launch was successful and rocket reached the intended Earth's orbit but 28 minutes later tweeted the rocket FAILED to reach orbit!

Excerpt:

A historic space mission that took off from Cornwall has ended in huge disappointment after a rocket carrying the first satellites launched from British soil failed to reach orbit.

To whoops and cheers from a crowd that had gathered at Spaceport Cornwall to watch the launch, a converted Boeing 747 took off and headed out across the Atlantic.

The company tweeted: “LauncherOne has … successfully reached Earth orbit! Our mission isn’t over yet, but our congratulations to the people of the UK! This is already the first-ever orbital mission from British soil – an enormous achievement.”

Twenty-eight minutes later it tweeted: “We appear to have an anomaly that has prevented us from reaching orbit. We are evaluating the information.”
