JAXA H3 project manager Masashi Okada called the result “perfect,” saying H3 cleared all missions set for Saturday's flight. “After a long wait, the newborn H3 finally had its first cry.”
H3 launch vehicles are liquid-propellant rockets with strap-on solid rocket boosters and are launched from Tanegashima Space Center in Japan. Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) and JAXA are responsible for the design, manufacture, and operation of the H3. The H3 is the world's first rocket to use an expander bleed cycle for the first stage ...
JAXA's 63 m (297 ft) H3 rocket can carry a 6.5 ton payload into space, more than H-IIA's maximum of 6 tons, and fly more cheaply by adopting simpler structures and automotive-grade electronics ...
The H3 left the Tanegashima Space Center in southern Japan at 9:22 a.m. local time on Saturday, the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) said in a statement.

"The newborn H3 has just made its first cry", JAXA project manager Masashi Okada, who has led the decade-long development of the new rocket, told a news conference.
The LE-9 is a liquid cryogenic rocket engine burning liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen in an expander bleed cycle. Two or three will be used to power the core stage of the H3 launch vehicle. [1] [2] [5] The newly developed LE-9 engine is the most important factor in achieving cost reduction, improved safety and increased thrust.
