The @projectsalto team visited #EsrangeSpaceCenter, saw the T1H on the launch pad, and aligned on next steps for the Hop Test campaign.

[salto-project @projectsalto]

The T1H (Themis-1 Hop) demonstrator now stands tall at Esrange, fully assembled with landing legs for the first time.

An important milestone for the EU-funded SALTO project, paving the way for Europe’s reusable launchers.
