Small Innovative Launcher for Europe: Achievement of the H2020 Project SMILE

Today's market for small satellites is expanding, but there is little availability of affordable launches. Launch costs of around €50,000 per kg are required to compete with ride-shares. Hence, production and operation costs are considered essential. Fourteen European companies and institutes h...
