Rocket builder Astra Space reached orbit for the first time with its rocket LV0007. The company on Saturday launched the rocket, which carried a test payload for the US Space Force, from the Pacific Spaceport Complex in Kodiak, Alaska, CNBC reported. After getting off the ground, the rocket reached its target orbit about nine minutes later at an altitude of about 500 kilometres.
