The government hopes it will kickstart the UK space industry
Rocket flights and satellite launches can now launch from the UK, after new space industry regulations came into force.
Potential UK spaceports include Newquay in Cornwall, Snowdonia in North Wales, and the Western Isles, Glasgow, Machrihanish, Sutherland and Shetland, all in Scotland. ‘These regulations will help create new jobs and bring economic benefits to communities and organisations right across the UK, helping us to level up as we inspire the next generation of space scientists and engineers.’Howard Nye, president of the Royal Aeronautical Society, said it was a ‘landmark day for the UK’s space sector.’
