That’s a wrap! #SSCspaceConference2023 is now concluded – finished off by a full day of activities at #Esrange, visit to the #IceHotel and gala dinner. Thanks to our beloved customers and partners for making this a truly magical event ✨

[SSC Space @SSCspace]

Space is magical 💫 But what makes us fall in love with rockets, satellites and experiments – and the unknown? We asked three generations of space professionals and enthusiasts.

What a memorable moment…

[Christer @CFuglesang]

Now we have inaugurated the first satellite launch site on EU mainland, Esrange🚀

[SSC Sverige @SSCSpaceSverige]

En dröm som närts länge – redan på 80-talet diskuterades möjligheten att kunna skjuta upp satelliter från norra Sverige. Nu blir drömmen verklighet 🚀🛰️https://t.co/KkRLYU1oAn via @svtnyheter

[SSC Sverige @SSCSpaceSverige]

Det är äntligen dags... Europas första anläggning för uppskjutning av satelliter, Spaceport Esrange, är redo att invigas den 13 januari. Bandet klipps av inga andra än H.M. Kung Carl XVI Gustaf, Sveriges statsminister och EU-kommissionens ordförande. https://t.co/z44hn2UWrl

A very special rocket to conclude a very special year. Scheduled for launch early Tuesday morning, #SuborbitalExpress-3 will carry 12 experiments to 260 km and 6 minutes of microgravity. Among them are research on diabetes, the origin of the Universe and durable materials.

[Stefan Gardefjord @SteGuard]

Exciting suborbital launch coming up soon 🚀

[SSC Space @SSCspace]

The SubOrbital Express 3 with its twelve payloads has successfully arrived at Esrange, Kiruna! #Space #esrange

[SSC Space @SSCspace]

It’s getting closer. In a few weeks, SSC’s next SubOrbital Express flight with 12 international payloads will take off from Esrange Space Center, Kiruna. #space #rocketlaunch #microgravity #esrange
