日本私营航天公司 Space One 周日因不利天气条件取消了其第三次 Kairos 小型火箭发射。此次挫折延迟了该公司成为首家使用国产火箭将卫星送入轨道的日本私营企业的努力。上周三原定的尝试也因同样原因推迟。
Space One 宣布因不利天气条件，于周日取消其 18 米 Kairos 火箭发射。这是过去一周内的第二次推迟，此前周三计划的尝试也因恶劣天气而延迟。 该公司正努力成为首家使用国产火箭成功将卫星送入轨道的日本私营企业。然而，它在 2024 年遇到了两次发射失败。第一枚 Kairos 火箭于 3 月升空后不久爆炸，第二次飞行于 12 月发射后约 3 分钟中止。 此次最新取消进一步阻碍了 Space One 的雄心。该公司计划在天气条件改善后重新安排发射。

Tokyo-based space startup Space One canceled the launch of its Kairos No. 3 small rocket shortly before liftoff on March 4 from Spaceport Kii in Kushimoto, Wakayama Prefecture, after a safety system activated.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has grounded Blue Origin's New Glenn rocket following a partial failure during its third mission, NG-3, launched Sunday from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station. An upper-stage engine issue prevented the BlueBird 7 satellite from reaching its target 285-mile orbit, achieving only about 95 miles. This incident, the second grounding for the rocket, will halt flights pending investigation.

NASA has overhauled its Artemis program, postponing the first human moon landing until the Artemis IV mission in early 2028. The changes, announced by Administrator Jared Isaacman on February 27, 2026, aim to increase launch frequency and reduce risks after repeated delays with the Space Launch System rocket. An additional test flight, now Artemis III, will focus on low-Earth orbit rendezvous with commercial lunar landers.
NASA has canceled the Exploration Upper Stage for its Space Launch System rocket as part of a major revision to the Artemis program. The decision, announced by Administrator Jared Isaacman, aims to accelerate lunar landings by focusing on surface activities and using more efficient upper stages. This move supports testing of human landers from SpaceX and Blue Origin ahead of missions in 2027 and 2028.
