Japan’s Space One rocket exploded moments after launch as the company tried and failed to become the first Japanese private firm to put a satellite into orbit. Dramatic footage shows the 60ft Kairos rocket blasting off from Space Port Kii in Kushimoto, western Japan, on March 13 carrying a government test satellite, before disintegrating and exploding in a huge fireball that scattered burning debris on the ground. Fortunately nobody was injured in the blast, and the company says no serious damage was caused on the ground either.
