Spanish startup PLD Space aborted the test launch of its reusable rocket Miura-1 due to a technical failure. The suborbital test flight would have been the first of its kind in Western Europe. The company hopes to start commercial activity in 2025. The rocket stands as tall as a three-story building and is capable of carrying cargo up to 100 kg or 220 pounds.
