China's Deep Blue Aerospace said on Sunday its first-of-its-kind reusable kerosene-fuelled rocket, Nebula-1, failed to complete a high-altitude vertical recovery test flight in the country's northern region of Inner Mongolia, crashing at the final stage. The private rocket startup's spacecraft completed 10 of its 11 tasks, the company said in a statement, with its three thrusters igniting as usual and launching the Nebula-1 high into the sky. Two of its engines then disengaged, as planned, and the rocket began its descent. REUTERS
