Relativity Space Launches 3D-Printed Rocket, Falls Short of Orbit Goal

Relativity is utilising the disposable Terran 1 rocket to show the practicality of their 3D printing process ahead of the launch of the reusable Terran R rocket in 2024. The manufacturing technique, in theory, produces simpler, more dependable rockets that are less expensive to produce and may be ready in a matter of weeks. This, in turn, may reduce the cost of launching satellites and experiments into orbit.
