Rocket company HyImpulse is granted a licence by the UK Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) to launch rockets from the SaxaVord spaceport on Shetland, with launches expected to begin early next year.
The decision follows a review process conducted by the CAA. The outlets report that the licence authorizes HyImpulse to operate from the site at SaxaVord, indicating the regulatory steps required for UK-based launches have been completed.
Across the sources, the core details are the same: HyImpulse receives the CAA licence, the launch location is SaxaVord in Shetland, and the timeline is set for early next year. The reports differ only in wording and emphasis, with no additional substantive points beyond the licence approval and expected start date.
