Explanation: On 3rd February 2018, Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) has launched the world's smallest rocket with the ability to put a micro-satellite into orbit following a failed attempt and several postponements over the last year. The launch of the low-cost rocket — with a height of 10 metres and 53 centimetres in diameter — took place from the Uchinoura Space Centre in Kagoshima prefecture. The rocket, an improved version of JAXA's SS-520, was carrying a micro-satellite weighing three kilograms and was developed by the University of Tokyo to capture images of the Earth's surface.
