Damn, people really be posting whatever title they want. Isar Aerospace said that initial launch could end prematurely, but the test will produce extensive data. Is that really a failure? It took me 2 seconds to google this.
Yes, that is really a failure. If you had googled for 10 seconds, you would have seen that they were trying to test a 2-stage orbital launch vehicle, and instead they nearly blew up the launch pad
Not only did they risk blowing up one of the only European launch pads in the world, but they also did not get to test the second stage of the launch.
This is really bad, if you know anything about engineering or space flight. Virgin galactic dissolved entirely because of failures like this one
