It was to be the first ever satellite mission launched from UK soil but it ended in failure. A jumbo jet named "Cosmic Girl" operated by Virgin Orbit carried a rocket out of Newquay Cornwall Airport to release it high over the Atlantic Ocean. The rocket ignited and appeared to be ascending correctly. But word then came from the company that the rocket had suffered an "anomaly". The satellites it was carrying could not be released and were lost. Investigations are underway to work out what went wrong.
