Item 8.01 Other Events.

On June 12, 2022, Astra Space, Inc. (the “Company” or “we”) conducted its first launch for NASA’s TROPICS-1 mission on our launch vehicle LV0010. While we had a nominal first stage flight, our upper stage shut down early and we did not deliver the payloads into low Earth orbit. We are reviewing flight data to determine the root cause of this anomaly and will provide additional information when it is available.

This launch was livestreamed through NASA Spaceflight. The video of this livestream is available on our Twitter account (@astra), our LinkedIn account (linkedin/company/astraspace) and our website at www.astra.com. Once available, we will furnish the transcript of the livestream of this launch.
