Through the development of their orbital launch vehicle, Skyrora XL, Skyrora will meet the demand for the many small satellites looking to access space from the UK, enabling valuable data collection in space that will ultimately improve our lives here on Earth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rosie highlights the larger dynamics at play within the newly emerging Scottish space industry and how Skyrora fits into this environment by providing launch capabilities to yield social, economic, and environmental benefits across the space value chain. With Scotland manufacturing more satellites than any other country in Europe, Skyrora\u2019s mission to conduct the first commercial vertical launch to orbit from UK soil is crucial to the success of the wider sector. Rosie also discusses the series of rockets Skyrora are developing locally to achieve this mission and the sustainable processes behind their development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text is-stacked-on-mobile\" style=\"grid-template-columns:38% auto\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/curiousabout.glasgowsciencecentre.org\/innovation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/04\/Rosie-Hull-Headshot-1024x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1874 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/curiousabout.glasgowsciencecentre.org\/innovation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/04\/Rosie-Hull-Headshot-1024x1024.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/curiousabout.glasgowsciencecentre.org\/innovation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/04\/Rosie-Hull-Headshot-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/curiousabout.glasgowsciencecentre.org\/innovation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/04\/Rosie-Hull-Headshot-768x768.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/curiousabout.glasgowsciencecentre.org\/innovation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/04\/Rosie-Hull-Headshot-1536x1536.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/curiousabout.glasgowsciencecentre.org\/innovation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/04\/Rosie-Hull-Headshot.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/curiousabout.glasgowsciencecentre.org\/innovation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/04\/Rosie-Hull-Headshot-320x320.jpeg 320w, https:\/\/curiousabout.glasgowsciencecentre.org\/innovation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/04\/Rosie-Hull-Headshot-480x480.jpeg 480w, https:\/\/curiousabout.glasgowsciencecentre.org\/innovation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/04\/Rosie-Hull-Headshot-1440x1440.jpeg 1440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p><strong>About Rosie Hull<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rosie is a Geology with Planetary Science graduate of the University of Manchester.
