This is the world's first 3D printed rocket, the Terran R

Relativity Space has been granted a launchpad at NASA 's Stennis Space Center .

The company is developing a 3D printed rocket that could be used to industrialize low Earth orbit and eventually colonize the planet Mars .

The Terran R is designed to be a reusable reusable rocket that will be designed specifically to deploy next generation satellites and serve as a multiplanetary transport.

Relativity built the world's first 3D printed rocket, Terran One .

The company claims that 90% of Terran One by mass consisted of 3D-printed components, which includes the Eon 1 engines that would be fueled by 3D engines.

Relativity is no different from SpaceX and Blue Origin , who built a small rocket before moving on to a bigger rocket.

Relativity launched the first 3D printed rocket to reach space.

But the second stage of the rocket failed to ignite properly and the rocket was no longer able to fight against gravity.

Relativity proudly declared that their partially failed first flight attempt was still successful enough to consider the Taran 1 mission accomplished and move directly into development of the new rocket.
