Launch of a Japanese rocket taking satellites into orbit to demonstrate new technologies fails after blast-off because of a positioning problem – Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency

But a self-destruct signal was sent to the rocket less than 10 minutes later because of "positioning abnormalities", said Yasuhiro Funo of JAXA, who led the project. "We ordered the rocket's destruction because if we cannot send it into the orbit that we planned, we don't know where it will go," he said, leading to safety concerns about where the machinery could fall.
"We will pour efforts into finding out the cause and will take counter-measures" to prevent a recurrence, Yamakawa said. Researchers and private companies had engineered new technologies to be tried out in space as part of the agency's third Innovative Satellite Technology Demonstration programme.
