SaltWire's Atlantic regional weather forecast for October 6, 2023 | SaltWireMADRID - Spanish startup PLD Space will attempt a test launch of its reusable Miura-1 rocket early on Saturday, spearheading a new generation of 'microlaunchers' after an aborted attempt in June.

Airspace, areas of the sea and roads have been closed round the high-security site. Public viewing points have been set up. Europe's efforts to develop capabilities to send small satellites into space are in focus after a failed orbital rocket launch by Virgin Orbit from Britain in January. That system involved releasing the launcher from a converted Boeing 747.

Competitors lining up to join the race to launch small payloads include companies in Scotland, Sweden and Germany.
