Rocket Factory Augsburg, Skyrora and Isar Aerospace are among the firms aiming for orbit next year.

Once the engines are tested and ready, the company will ship the first RFA One to, a commercial spaceport that's currently under construction in the Shetland Islands, around 100 miles off the northeast coast of Scotland.

In its efforts toward reaching this goal and the chance to claim a portion of a market for light launch services in Europe, however, RFA faces a field of rivals. Competitors in Germany, the United Kingdom and Spain are also working toward their first launches and proving their launch capability and reliability.

"We're pushing ahead for Q3 [2023], to try to get it up there and try to be the first," Harris said."From a technical point of view, we're very confident, very positive. There's lots of hard work going on. It's a big team approach. Hopefully, this time next year, we'll be celebrating the successful launch of the Skyrora XL launch vehicle.", the home country of Skyrora founder Volodymyr Levykin and a nation with a long history in rocketry.
