CNSPACE(@CNSpaceflight):SPACE-PIONEER just released the Tianlong-3 failure report, which probably hints another launch attempt soon. The report: LOX vented during ascent was aspirated into the aft end, leading secondary combustion of the first stage turnbine exhaust, which caused damage to the base thermal protection skirt. Hot plume gases were ingested into the first-stage aft compartment and ignite an internal fire, ultimately leading to a flight anomaly.
