Skyrora has taken another step towards achieving an orbital rocket launch from British soil by opening a new manufacturing and production facility; the largest of its kind in the UK.
After recently opening its engine test facility in Midlothian, this new facility in Cumbernauld allows the company to concentrate its launch development practices in custom-built facilities.
The production of two Skyrora vehicles has already commenced at the new site, which will increase up to 16 per year once mass production begins.
