The launch of the Angara-A5 heavy launch vehicle was canceled again due to a failure in the engine launch control system, said the head of Roscosmos, Yuri Borisov. The first launch was planned yesterday, April 9, but it was canceled at the last moment and postponed for a day. Today, April 10, the rocket launch was canceled again. On April 11, they will try to launch the rocket for the third time.
Mr. Borisov assured that “irreversible processes requiring the dismantling of the rocket have not occurred.” “A new technical problem has been identified, related, let’s say, according to the results of a preliminary analysis of telemetry – a failure in the engine start control system. Most likely this is a software error, which, of course, will be found today,” he said (quoted by TASS).
The news is being updated.
