Countdown Begins: Be a Part of the First SALTO Project Webinar on Reusable Rocket Technology!

The future of European rockets has never been within reach! Tomorrow and the day after, you can gain special insights into how reusable spaceflight technology is moving forward. SpaceForest is all part of it, and we invite you to join the first webinar of the SALTO project, which revolves around the new reusable rocket, Themis.

SpaceForest Contribution: The Critical “FLIP” Maneuver

SpaceForest belongs to an international team and is tasked with one of the most challenging phases of a mission: the “FLIP” maneuver. During this critical step, the rocket is inverted and prepared for landing, a critical technology for reusability in future space missions. Learn more about our contribution and its impact on the future of European spaceflight.

Find out the newest research and test outcomes that are changing the face of reusable rockets.
Meet industry leaders and discuss the pioneering innovations transforming space travel.

More About SALTO Project

SpaceForest is tasked with designing the technologies for the “FLIP” maneuver – rocket turnaround and preparation for landing in technical terms. It is part of an international consortium that streamlines the reentry trajectory of reusable rockets, a critical component of future space travel.

SpaceForest, under the SALTO project, is engaged in landing tests and integration of sophisticated navigation and control systems. SpaceForest enhances the efficiency and safety of reusable rocket technology by providing innovative solutions.

The development of these technologies is a step towards more sustainable space travel. By collaborating with Europe’s leading space industry firms, SpaceForest is part of the future of orbital flights, enabling Europe to compete in the global space technology market.

Our project work is coming to an end. The outcomes are promising, and we look forward to more project progression in the future. Find out more about our work >>
