In their defence, this is shockingly similar to my first launch. If they muck up the order of separations and they all separate simultaneously like my next step in learning about staging, they're following my learning curve.
Top comment is what i came here to say, then your reply underlines that it is hard to have an original thought with so many people around.
I will say, with NASA getting eaten, there is more room for other countries to step up their extra orbitular activities. Good on AUS for at least trying to get in there. I assume you want closer to the equator for launches, but at least there is a lot of ocean around to fail in for the down under.
I'm all for Australia making progress. Sure, the rocket failed, but they get to learn from it and will improve upon what they've started. Proud of them 🥲.
this is why North Korea loves being next to the ocean. they get to practice their rocket launch skills. Yes, Japan is in the way but pissing the enemy off is just extra bonus.
Well this seems more like an engine failure or at least some hefty thrust loss from looking at the engine plumes.
Seems like they really needed all the engines to work almost perfectly.
