Alongside a team of international experts, Skyrora hosted the most recent meeting for the European Union’s Horizon Europe Research and Innovation Programme’s ‘Made-3D’ project at the company’s engine manufacturing facility outside of Glasgow. 

Skyrora has begun a series of full-duration tests to qualify the updated design of its 70kN engine for its first commercial orbital launch.

Last week, the first Chief of Space Operations for the United States, General John W. “Jay” Raymond, toured the facilities of Skyrora as US interest grows in the British rocket company.

Skyrora has successfully completed the static fire test of the second stage of its flagship Skyrora XL orbital rocket.

Skyrora has submitted its application to the UK Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) to obtain the licence required for commercial spaceflight activities.

Skyrora has taken another stride towards achieving a sovereign orbital launch from British soil by opening a manufacturing and production facility.
