Prestwick Spaceport to accelerate launch hub plans

Representatives from Prestwick Spaceport are set to meet with stakeholders from across the global space industry, commerce, academia and government at this week’s Farnborough International Airshow.

Prestwick Spaceport will have a major presence alongside partners with Space Scotland, as part of a dedicated space zone at the world’s biggest airshow.
