| Video Discription | NEWS: Chinese rocket fail - Tianlong-3 accidently launches and crashes with massive explosion In a quarry near Gongyi, a large city in the Chinese province of Henan, a major incident occurred during an engine test of the Tianlong-3 rocket from Space Pioneer. The test, which was originally supposed to take place safely on the ground, got out of control when the rocket stage broke free from its anchoring and lifted off vertically. The incident, which fortunately occurred without catastrophic consequences, could easily have led to a tragedy. The Tianlong-3, which is similar to SpaceX's Falcon 9 with a launch weight of 590 tons, was loaded with around 200 tons of fuel at the time of the accident. The rocket's crash led to a huge explosion that could have had devastating consequences if it had hit a populated area. Instead, the missile hit a wooded area about 1,460 meters southwest of the test stand. The original construction of the test stand, which was designed for the smaller Tianlong-2 missile, could not withstand the thrust of 820 tons from the nine engines of the Tianlong-3. The increased load ultimately caused the rocket stage to detach during the test and lift off uncontrollably. Space Pioneer confirmed in a statement that there were no personal injuries or further damage to property. The company announced that it would not test any more large rocket stages at Gongyi and is currently searching for the black box and investigating the debris. Chinese space travel has a history of safety problems. One particularly tragic example is the crash of a Long March 3B rocket on February 15, 1996, in which the Intelsat 708 satellite crashed into a village, causing numerous casualties. This incident led to Western satellites no longer being launched with Chinese rockets. Gongyi has a historical connection to rocketry. The city is home to the imperial tombs of the Northern Song Dynasty, during whose reign black powder was developed. Reports from this period mention the use of black powder rockets, underlining China's long tradition of rocket development. #news #newsbeat #rockets #china #technology #rocketlaunch 📺 Watch more documentaries https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-5sURDcN_Zl8hBqkvZ6uXFpP3t55HU9s 🔔 Subscribe to our full documentary channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBAeFXaLV1ZqKqc-Uf3pKaA?sub_confirmation=1 ZiYXBbqKjPU |
