Next, I have a sadder one: Rocket Lab had a failed mission. If you don’t know Rocket Lab, they do similar things to SpaceX but launch out of New Zealand and have a few traits that I think are much better. I’ll probably go into what those are some time later. For now, here’s
their press release about what happened. I, for one, am extremely disappointed by this failure since I am possibly a bigger fan of Rocket Lab than any other private space agency, but I’m confident they’ll be able to keep going after this setback.
In my final space news item for this week, I’d like to bring your attention to the Lunar Eclipse on the 26th! You should take a look up at the sky!
In other news, I got a couple of class awards (Media Literacy and Biology) and was inducted to NHS this week, so that’s pretty cool.
