A space rocket built by a Japanese startup blasted off on Wednesday but was later seen spiralling downwards in the distance as the company said the launch attempt had failed.
It was the second attempt by Space One to become the country's first private firm to put a satellite into orbit, after the first try in March ended in a mid-air explosion.

NASA and SpaceX have rescheduled the launch of the Crew-10 mission to the International Space Station (ISS) to no earlier than late March 2025. The adjustment allows teams time to finalize processing for a new Dragon spacecraft set to support the mission. The spacecraft is scheduled to arrive at SpaceX's processing facility in Florida in early January.
