This attempt marked the first Launch of orbital vehicles European soil, excluding Russia and Europe, he first financed almost exclusively by the private sector.
The weather conditions had caused several launch delays and Isar Aerospace had maintained modest expectations. “Every second that we fly is good, because we collect data and experience. Thirty seconds would already be a great success,” said Daniel Metzler, co-founder and chief executive officer of the company, before the launch, as reported by AFP.
