Maritime Launch Services will provide the launch site for Isar Aerospace's new complex in Nova Scotia.

Canada aims to develop independent end-to-end access to space through the contract with Isar Aerospace.

iSpace launched its first autonomous booster recovery drone ship, Qinglan (清澜), in August last year as the first part of its Xingji Guihang (星际归航) fleet.

The Hyperbola-3 pathfinder gained semi-functional landing legs in May for drop tests at iSpace’s launch vehicle processing and refurbishment facility next to the Wenchang Commercial Space Launch Site.

iSpace recovery teams will continue practicing procedures for bringing a Hyperbola-3 first stage back after landing before Qinglan is used for recovery operations.

iSpace has not yet integrated a Hyperbola-3 launch vehicle for Qinglan’s debut flight and recovery attempt.

The May drop tests confirmed that the landing-leg design can withstand the expected touchdown impact before stabilizing.

iSpace’s Qinglan drone ship is 42 meters wide and 100 meters long.

The Hyperbola-3 pathfinder has full-scale grid fins and engines attached to a 4.2-meter-diameter representation of the booster’s propellant tanks and structures.

Around the middle of June, iSpace placed the Hyperbola-3 pathfinder onto Qinglan at Yangjiang port in Guangdong province.

iSpace took Qinglan offshore with the Hyperbola-3 pathfinder for extensive trials supported by five other vessels.

In June, iSpace loaded an inert Hyperbola-3 first-stage pathfinder onto Qinglan.

Qinglan maintained its stability in waves up to four meters tall during joint tests with the Hyperbola-3 pathfinder.

iSpace has already practiced unloading a booster from Qinglan at least twice.

iSpace officials are aiming to fly and attempt a landing at least once this year.

Qinglan uses four propulsion units, with two at the aft and two in the bow, to hold position.

The Hyperbola-3 pathfinder gained semi-functional landing legs in recent months.

Qinglan is not powerful enough and does not carry enough onboard fuel to travel to and from port under its own power.
