Themis\u2019 reusable space launcher will start first-stage tests, seeking to achieve vehicle liftoff and recovery.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, the facility will be used for suborbital test launches of various next-gen rockets.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks to the above, Spaceport Esrange will help establish the continent\u2019s resilience in space. As per Gardefjord, it will enable a \u201csecure, competitive, and sustainable Europe.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The launch of Spaceport Esrange will also be a huge positive for startups working in this sector. Not only will there be ample business opportunities, there\u2019s also the question of talent. Having a launch facility will require skilled operators, many of whom will move into different companies, spreading their expertise across the whole continent and helping accelerate and grow Europe\u2019s space sector.<\/p>\n<p>At the moment, Spaceport Esrange is trying to attract satellite owners and orbital rocket manufacturers for potential partnerships. The first satellite launch is expected late 2023.\n                        <\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
