Re: First satellite launch from the UK set to go ahead tonight in Cornwall

Virgin Orbit’s rocket failed to achieve orbit because a fuel filter became dislodged during flight.

That’s a manufacturing problem resulting either from weak design or careless construction. A thorough investigation will now have to follow at the Mojave factory where they assemble these things.
