KOROLYOV. Feb 1 (Interfax-AVN) - There is information that the Zenit-3SL rocket deviated from its calculated trajectory immediately after the launch, which caused an emergency engine shutdown, a source in the space industry told Interfax.
"The rocket fell into the ocean. The command vessel and the floating cosmodrome were not damaged," he source said.
This is the second failed Zenit launch and it took place on January 31 (the rocket was launch on January 31 Pacific Ocean time). "This date is an unlucky one for the program Sea Launch," he said.
