THE COUNTDOWN to the firstever space launch from UK soil has begun after a Royal Air Force C-17 Globemaster arrived at Spaceport Cornwall carrying Virgin Orbit’s Launcher One rocket. The delivery followed the arrival of a modified 747 aircraft from the Mojave desert in California to Newquay, flown by Sqn Ldr Mathew Stannard, an RAF test pilot working with Virgin Orbit. The giant aircraft, dubbed Cosmic Girl, will take off, soar to 35,000ft and release the rocket that will blast satellites from seven global customers into space. l See p2
