"What seems clear is that Ellis is positioning Relativity to compete directly against United Launch Alliance and Blue Origin as the second provider of medium- and large-lift launch services in the United States and Western world."

Interesting. So really the 3-D printing part passed the test if it made it past the point of maximum stress. There's lots of speculation about the cause of the engine failure in the 2nd stage in the comments there.

This is a photo of the Terran 1 engines firiing. It's gorgeous.

The patterns in the exhaust are called "Shock Diamonds", or "Mach Diamonds" en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shock_di

The Terran-1 leaves the launchpad. Such clean plumes, such beautiful plasma. Ice and fire.

Congratulations to Relativity Space on getting almost all of the way to orbit from scratch on the third try. Spacex make it look easy now, but here are some favourite past experiences, with all the right music.

"'We successfully made it through Max-Q, the highest stress state on our printed structures. This is the biggest proof point for our novel additive manufacturing approach. Today is a huge win, with many historic firsts. We also progressed through main engine cutoff and stage separation. We will assess flight data and provide public updates over the coming days.'"

Some good news to wake up to!

Congratulation to Relativity Space for successful launch of the Terran 1 and reaching MAX-Q proving the concept of 3D printed rockets using mixture of alluminium allow depositing.

After all the time I spent trying to watch this launch, I completely missed it when it finally happened. 🙄

Skip to near the end to see the company's own video of the event - stage 1 succeeded but this proof of concept launch ended in a stage 2 engine anomaly youtube.com/live/bzA0lIwh19c?f
