It crashed? Go read the telemetry and see what went wrong. Try again.
I mean, technically, Russia is in Europe.
Also, as the guys at NASA said back in the day, it takes a thousand failures to create one working rocket. Don’t look at something halfway done and call it a failure.
edit = apparently I need to learn to read a map.
Don’t they do most of their launches from Baikonur in Kazakhstan?
Yeah, but they do have Plesetsk in the European part of Russia. Only used for unmanned launches.
Not very orbital, then, is it. Jokes aside, rocketry is hard and I hope they gained the data to make it work next time.
Yeah it’s pretty much a requirement for a new space company to crash their first rocket. At least that’s my default expectation. Space is crazy hard.
