Aikin Taurus T8 ya gaza saboda kayan aiki bai rabu ba yayin hawa, wanda ya sa roket din bai zubar da nauyi ba. A sakamakon karin nauyi, rokar Taurus ta kasa kaiwa ga saurin orbital, wanda ya haifar da asarar aikin gaba ɗaya. A ranar 4 ga watan Maris na shekara ta 2011, wani rokar Taurus (Taurus T9) dauke da tauraron dan adam na kimiyya na NASA ya kasa isa orbit. Har ila yau, aikin Taurus T9 ya kammala a cikin gazawar kayan aiki don rabuwa.
