Isar Aerospace will conduct its second test flight of the Spectrum rocket, scheduled for January 21 from the Andøya Space launch complex in Norway, subject to weather and safety approvals. The first flight occurred on March 30, 2025, ending in a sea crash after 30 seconds.
This upcoming flight will carry five small satellites and an experiment, marking a significant step toward European access to space. The European Space Agency (ESA) is backing Isar Aerospace, which aims to enhance Europe's space infrastructure.
The company has raised €150 million in funding and employs over 400 people. The Spectrum rocket, 28 meters long, can carry payloads of up to one ton.
