Failed launch of Epsilon-6 rocket

The Epsilon-6 rocket is launched from the Uchinoura Space Center in Kimotsuki in Kagoshima Prefecture, southwestern Japan, on Oct. 12, 2022. The rocket was ordered to self-destruct after takeoff as it apparently experienced an issue that made it unable to fly normally, the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency said.
