## Resource

Germany just scored a major space win: Isar Aerospace launched its Spectrum rocket from Norway, becoming the first private European company to send a rocket into orbit. After a rocky start eighteen months ago, this successful test marks a huge leap for Europe’s commercial space ambitions — with plans to build 40 rockets a year and even launch from Canada. Backed by ESA funding and packed with future orders, Isar is poised to challenge global giants and reshape Europe’s role in the booming space race.
