Overview
- The Hanbit-Nano lifted off from Brazil’s Alcântara Space Center at 10:13 p.m. local time before an in‑flight anomaly ended the mission roughly 30 seconds to one minute after launch.
- Live coverage showed flames and an on-screen anomaly alert shortly after liftoff, and Innospace cut the livestream soon afterward.
- The vehicle fell within a designated ground safety zone with no casualties reported, and Brazil’s air force dispatched teams to inspect the impact area.
- The mission carried eight registered payloads, including five small satellites for customers in Brazil and India, intended for low Earth orbit deployment.
- Innospace says it secured flight and propulsion data, has begun a joint investigation with Brazilian authorities, and targets another commercial attempt in the first half of 2026 as its Seoul-listed shares fell about 24%.
