LauncherOne shot off to the heavens from Newquay, UK, on January 9 but the mission ended in disappointment as the satellites failed to reach orbit.

A converted Virgin Atlantic jumbo jet, known as Cosmic Girl, was launched carrying the nine satellites that were for deployment in Earth's lower orbit.

Around 2,000 well-wishers bought tickets and gathered in the seaside town at around 10 p.m. to see the first satellite launch from western Europe.
