E-mailTOKYO, Dec 22 (Reuters) - A Japanese H3 rocket could not put a government-run QZS-5 navigation satellite into its intended orbit after engine trouble, the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency said on Monday.
Japan's flagship H3 rocket, built by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, failed in its inaugural launch in 2023 but has succeeded in six subsequent flights. A rocket launch failure in Japan typically leads to months of investigations that could delay the national space programme.
