Japan’s space agency announced Thursday it will launch its next-generation H3 rocket in February after two failed attempts early this year.
The rocket, billed as a flexible and cost-effective new flagship, is scheduled to lift off between 9:22 am and 1:06 pm (0022 and 406 GMT) on February 15 from the southern island of Tanegashima, the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) said in a press release.
The third launch attempt comes after the spacecraft was forced to self-destruct in March when the command center concluded its mission could not succeed.
