A European startup scrubs its attempt to launch an orbital rocket on its first test flight

A private European aerospace company has scrubbed the first test flight of its orbital launch vehicle. Isar Aerospace says it canceled Monday’s attempt to launch its Spectrum rocket from an island in northern Norway because of unfavorable winds. The launch time is subject to various factors, including weather and safety. The flight could take place later in the week. The Spectrum is a two-stage launch vehicle designed for small and medium-sized satellites. The startup says it has raised more than $435 million in capital and hopes to build up to 40 launch vehicles per year in the future to put satellites into orbit.
