Skyrora XL

Skyrora plans to offer launch services to low Earth Sun-synchronous and polar orbits for payloads of up to 315 kg through Skyrora XL, its 23-meter 56-tonne three-stage microlauncher. Skyrora XL is based on liquid propulsion using a mix of high-test (hydrogen) peroxide/Ecosene (an in-house developed rocket fuel) and will be prepared for its first test flight targeted for Q4 2022.

ESA, through its Boost! programme is co-funding the qualification of the main rocket engine intended for the Skyrora XL first and second stages as well as the static test firing of the integrated first and second stages.
