Japanese rocket engine exploded during test flight

Japanese rocket engine exploded during test flight An Epsilon S rocket engine exploded during a test flight at the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) test site. The footage shows that the explosion occurred about a minute after the second stage engine was started. This is not the first failure of the Japanese space program. Previously, the main Japanese carrier rocket H3 medium payload self-destructed in March, as there was a failure of the second stage engines. In October, the solid-propellant rocket Epsilon-6 already failed. Источник: Readovka World
