Europe begins space race with ISAR Aerospace rocket
German company Isar Aerospace successfully launched the first orbital rocket from Norway, from a site in the Arctic region, carrying five small satellites and a technical experiment. The goal was to enhance Europe's independence in the space sector. This launch came after a failed attempt 18 months ago and represents an important step toward providing satellite launch services from Europe’s territory, as countries like Sweden and Britain seek to benefit from the commercial space mission market. The company also focused on developing its infrastructure, including establishing a second launch site in Canada, supported by the European Space Agency with nearly 200 million euros, aiming to strengthen Europe’s capabilities in accessing space and ensuring its military and economic independence.
