A couple final edits of #Terran1 @relativityspace

Doh. looks like I missed the #Terran1 3D-printed rocket #launch attempt yesterday.

watching now from the t-10s point at the 1:21:50 mark on the archived livestream

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.

Enjoyed this launch from my backyard last night.

My new mantra: "Good luck, have fun".

One of the prettiest launches in the 151 that I've been lucky to cover. A beautiful proof of concept for 3D printed methalox fueled #Relativity #Terran1 3-22-23 at 11:25 PM reaching MaxQ & stage separation even with out making orbit for their first ever attempt. Well done!🚀🇺🇲🚀

Three different perspectives from the beach south of Jetty Park during an amazing first ever liftoff, MaxQ & stage separation by 3D printed methalox fueled #Relativity #Terran1 from SLC-16 3-22-23 at 11:25 PM EDT. The flame was so white to the eye. Congratulations team! 🚀🇺🇲🚀

RT @SchilkeScott
Those shock diamonds are gorgeous on #Relativity #Terran1 with nine Aeon 1 engines working in unison to propel @relativityspace to MaxQ and a ton of data acquired for this 3D printed proof of concept demonstration flight. It didn't reach orbit but it is a success! Congrats team!

Fate of Methalox Rockets 🚀 🏁
Landspace's #ZhuQue2 Y1 - It failed to enter orbit due to 2nd stage’s vernier engine early shutdown on Dec 14, 2022.

Today, the Relativity's #Terran1 - failed to enter orbit due to 2nd stage’s Ignition and failed to pick-up thrust.

Fisheye streak 2space: Liftoff @relativityspace 1st #Terran1 3D printed rocket 1125PM Mar22.Lovely purple-blue flame 9 methane fueled 1st stage engines. Congrats! 1st stage went well. But 2nd stage failed to ignite properly after stage sep, did not reach orbit, was not vis to us

Foto de larga exposición del primer lanzamiento del #Terran1 desde la playa en Cabo Cañaveral.

Tremendo el rendimiento de la primera etapa del Terran!

Felicides a @thetimellis y todo el equipo de @relativityspace! 👏🏻👏🏻

RT @manumazzanti
Una pena lo de la segunda etapa, lamentablemente no se llegó a órbita pero fue un lanzamiento espectacular.

Una llama que fue cambiando de un color naranja pálido a azul casi intenso.

En un ratito, la de larga exposición!
