#^Europe’s New Rocket Challenger Is Racing Back to the Launch Pad at Breakneck Speed

Less than nine months after its first test flight, Isar Aerospace has completed a major step toward its next launch. The company confirmed on 22nd December that both stages of its Spectrum rocket have successfully passed final ground testing, clearing the way for launch preparations in Norway.

The tests were carried out at Andøya Spaceport, where Isar operates its own dedicated launch complex. Each stage of the vehicle completed a 30-second integrated static fire, validating the rocket’s readiness for final integration and launch operations. The achievement marks a rapid return to testing following Spectrum’s first flight earlier this year.

Rapid Iteration at the Heart of Isar’s Approach


For Isar Aerospace, speed is a central part of its strategy. The company says its ability to move quickly from one flight campaign to the next reflects how it approaches launch development.

“We are building more than rockets, we are building the capability for nations to access and sustain space on their own terms,” said Daniel Metzler, the company’s chief executive and co-founder. “Rapid iteration is how you win in this domain. Being back on the pad less than nine months after our first test flight is proof that we can operate at the speed the world now demands.”

The short gap between flights highlights Isar’s focus on learning quickly from test campaigns and moving efficiently toward the next mission.

Built In-House for Repetition and Scale


Isar Aerospace attributes its progress to a highly integrated production model. Spectrum is designed and manufactured almost entirely in-house, supported by an automated production system intended to enable repeated vehicle builds from European soil.

That effort is centred on a new 40,000-square-metre facility near Munich, which the company says has the capacity to produce more than 30 launch vehicles per year. The emphasis on in-house manufacturing gives Isar tight control over schedules and hardware as it prepares for future launches.

With static fire testing complete, Spectrum now enters its final phase of preparation ahead of its second flight from Andøya.

自作WASMランタイム、書いてる途中でWASMのバージョン上がって前のバージョンのドキュメントが参照しづらくなって停滞してたんですが(ここまで100パー言い訳)、久々にさわろうとしてます。こっからなにを実装するつもりだったんだ俺…ってのに30分くらい使いました。あと前後と途中でMastodonしてたので合計3時間くらい。

Hello European coffee aficionados - we use a Hario V60 dripper which takes those pointy filters. Is there something special about the Hario brand filters, or do you use others that are just as good, and don't have to travel all the way from Japan to Europe?

我覺得現代實體店還是有需求的

昨天和伴侶去蘋果實體店買iPhone 17 Pro
店員千叮萬囑資料轉移前要剷除舊手機的VPN app,然後哪些銀行app要先轉移好再拿去清除資料
最後因為我們選擇舊機trade in,店員還提醒最好年底前拿去,不然月頭兌換價可能又跌了

想當年我也花了整晚都轉移不了,銀行部分也搞了很久。昨天伴侶按照指示做,一小時內就成功了

我們去買的時候,店員還說:「聖誕節都過來一定是為了買新手機 :sacabambaspis_normal: 。」

實體店從來不是不能跟線上競爭,而是大家都沒有意識人類可以提供的加值服務在哪裡

mpv video upscaled to 4k may struggle to compete with commercial tv, but the audio quality of mpv is far superior.

rn watching howl's moving castle on sbs and its constantly flipflopping between too loud and too quiet, even sentence from sentence by the same character in the same scene, and of course the background music and effects way too loud vs the dialogue

[now switching channels to patriot games maybe the audio there will be tolerable]

Not so happy. Financially, 2025 was probably the worst year I had since I started translating for a living. I lost most of my long time clients - retirement, sickness etc. - and new ones are hard to find.
So I am on self promotion now - anyone here who wants his English book translated into German? No option for you? Talk to me. Most of my authors are glad for the additional income.

운명의 신비로운 흐름

1. 우연은 결코 우연이 아니다
2. 작은 선택이 큰 변화를 만든다
3. 인생은 예측할 수 없는 여정
4. 지금 이 순간을 믿어라
5. 흔들리지 않는 내면의 평화를 가져라
6. 두려움보다 용기를 선택하라
7. 모든 경험은 나를 성장시킨다
8. 운명은 내가 만들어간다
