“The space is difficult,” explains an aerospace engineer commenting on a rocket launch video that ends with the explosion of mits. But as Dr. Chris Combs points out, “it’s the most picturesque launch failure video I have ever seen.”
The rocket in question was carried out by Isar Aerospace, a German company which has become the first European commercial space company to launch an orbital rocket from continental Europe.
Yesterday (Sunday) (Sunday), he took off from the Arctic Andøya Spaceport (Sunday) at 12:30 p.m. before crashing on earth less than a minute later and exploding.

Nevertheless, the CEO of Isar always characterizes the launch as an achievement.
“Our first test flight met all of our expectations, making great success,” said co-founder Daniel Metzler. “We had a clean take -off, 30 seconds of flight, and we were even able to validate our flight termination system.”
The region distant from the Andøya spatial is located – in the extreme north of Norway, a country that extends in the Arctic – makes visuals convincing while fire and ice meet in a exciting manner.

It is similar to a drone video from last year showing the Chinese startup Deep Blue Aerospace testing a rocket which has also crashed on the ground in interior Mongolia.

Obviously, rocket launches are an aesthetic treat for those who are fortunate to capture one. Private companies such as SpaceX, which regularly launches orbit rockets, offer excellent photographic opportunities.
Photographer Josh Dury captured a starlink satellite train passing through the night sky and last week, a giant whirlwind of Espacex, caused by a fuel dump, appeared on large stretches in Europe.
Isar Aerospace’s Spectrum rocket is designed to orbit in orbit small and medium via a two -step launch vehicle.
