Relativity Space, an aerospace startup that carried out the first test flight of a 3D-printed rocket, announced Wednesday that it will focus on a bigger rocket to compete for commercial launches with SpaceX and other companies. The Long Beach, California-based company launched the world's first 3D-printed rocket, Terran 1, on March 22 from Cape Canaveral, Florida.

After failing the first and second attempt, the Terran 1—world’s first 3D-printed rocket, was launched successfully on its third attempt on Wednesday, but despite sustained efforts, it failed to achieve orbit during second-stage separation, according to AFP.

Two attempts to launch Relativity Space's Terran 1 rocket on Saturday, Mar. 11, were unsuccessful again.

The first 3D-printed spacecraft, Terran 1, will soon blast off to space. Here's when it'll take off, its features, and other details.

The mission is called Good Luck Have Fun.

Relativity Space mission control announced the launch was scrubbed just before 3:30 p.m.

3D printing has revolutionized all industries, and it’s now taking over the rocket-building market as well. A 216-foot-tall rocket that is entirely 3D-printed and fully reusable will be ready to launch in 2024.
