Northrop Grumman test fires Omega rocket in Utah despite anomaly at the end. Northrop Grumman tested the first stage of its OmegA rocket at its Promontory, Utah, solid rocket motor facility. Northrop Grumman is moving ahead on schedule to field its new OmegA rocket by 2021 in hopes that the U.S. Air Force will select it as one replacement to the Russian-made RD-180, with the first stage test firing scheduled for May 31, one official said April 8.

Northrop Grumman Corporation completed the first static or “stationary,” full-scale test of its next-generation OmegA space launch vehicle at its site in Promontory, Utah. The test involved OmegA’s first and most powerful stage, the CASTOR 600 (C600) aft solid rocket motor segment. ORLANDO, Fla. — Northrop Grumman announced Feb. 27 it completed a static fire test of the second stage of its OmegA rocket. Today’s cold test, in conjunction with the successful hot static fire in May 2019, subjected OmegA’s motors to the most extreme propellant temperatures the rocket will experience during storage, transport, stacking and launch. Today's test clears the way for Northrop Grumman to proceed toward its first launch of the OmegA rocket. OmegA is similar to the defunct Ares I and Liberty projects, both of which consisted of a five segment Space Shuttle Solid Rocket Booster (SRB) and a cryogenic second stage. OmegA consists of new composite solid rocket stages with a cryogenic upper stage provided by Aerojet Rocketdyne, replacing earlier plans to use an upper stage provided by Blue Origin. The 122-second test took place at 1:05 p.m. MDT (19:05 GMT) May 30, 2019.
