The Castor A was an Argentine sounding rocket designed in 1969 by the Instituto de Investigaciones Aeronáuticas y Espaciales (IIAE).[1][2]
The rocket featured a two-stage configuration, utilizing five Canopus II rockets (four in the first stage and one in the second).[1][2] It was capable of placing a 75 kg (165 lb) payload at a 400 km altitude.[1]
Throughout its operational lifespan, the Castor A was launched seven times.[1][3] It experienced one failure during one of its launches, thus achieving a success rate of approximately 83.3%.[1][3]
