Australia’s first homegrown orbital rocket, Gilmour Space’s Eris, launched from Bowen Orbital Spaceport but didn’t reach orbit due to an engine failure seconds after liftoff. Regulatory delays and a fairing mishap preceded the flight, and one of the four Sirius engines faltered, causing the 30-metric-tonne rocket to lose thrust and slide off course. A second engine failure led to a slow descent and an unintended propulsive landing, with the rocket staying upright until it tipped over. Check out the footage and analysis of this dramatic test flight, and what’s next for Gilmour’s ambitious program.
