- Fail reason
- Upper stage failed to restart for 2nd burn leaving upper stage & payload simulator in LEO. As the resulting orbit would be completely unsalvageable by a hypothetical real payload, and the main purpose of the launch was to test the Persey upper stage, it should be considered a failure.
