Maritime Launch Services, the company behind Spaceport Nova Scotia in the Canso area, has finalized key agreements with Montreal-based orbital launch firm Reaction Dynamics Inc.<\/p>\n
The deal marks a major milestone for Canada, paving the way for the first-ever orbital launch of a Canadian-designed and built rocket from Canadian soil at Spaceport Nova Scotia.<\/p>\n
Under the first agreement, Reaction Dynamics will invest more than $1 million in common shares of Maritime Launch Services.<\/p>\n
Another arrangement, known as a pathfinder launch agreement, will allow Reaction Dynamics to launch its spacecraft from the spaceport.<\/p>\n
The company is expected to conduct its first orbital launch attempt on or before the third quarter of 2028.<\/p>\n
The agreements come as both companies aim to position Nova Scotia as the hub of Canada\u2019s emerging space economy.<\/p>\n
Maritime Launch Services plans to establish Spaceport Nova Scotia as the country\u2019s first orbital launch complex for both commercial and government missions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Maritime Launch Services, the company behind Spaceport Nova Scotia in the Canso area, has finalized key agreements with…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":69294,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[23],"tags":[49,48,66,306],"class_list":["post-69293","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-space","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-science","tag-space"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/69293","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=69293"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/69293\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/69294"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=69293"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=69293"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=69293"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
