September 8th - The Exploration Company GmbH has raised $450 million to advance the development of Europes first reusable spacecraft and a new rocket engine, which the company says will be the regions largest rocket engine, making it a competitor to SpaceX. CEO Helen Hubie stated in an interview that the majority of the funding will go towards the Storm methane-oxygen engine, intended as Europes next-generation heavy-lift launch vehicle. She said the funding will enable the company to test Storm from the end of this year to 2028. The engine has been under development for three years.
