A Canadian space and aerospace company has signed a lease for a testing facility at Spaceport Cornwall.
Space Engine Systems' move hopes to bring the next generation of propulsion technologies to Cornwall. The company is developing a lightweight, reusable, multi-fuel propulsion system with the aim of "maximising engine performance for space and high speed flight".
Building on the 2019 Memorandum of Understanding between the two organisations, the partnership provides a facility for Space Engine Systems to test its reusable, horizontal take-off and landing vehicles.
