The B2Space satellite launch solution is based on the “rockoon” concept (rocket + balloon), and will comprise of a stratospheric balloon, which will lift a self-operative platform from which the launcher is deployed. A three stages solid propellant rocket will deliver the satellites into the required customer orbits (Within Low Earth Orbits [LEO] ), which are orbits with altitudes ranging from 200km to 1000 km, approximately).

Aswell, at the ESA Business Incubation Centre Harwell, UK, B2Space developed a Near Space Testing service :  a “flying lab” based on stratospheric balloons to test Space technologies. We took advantage of the work done for our launch system to develop another revenue stream using common technologies.

Besides, based on the Near Space testing service and balloon capabilities developed, we are adapting our stratospheric balloon platforms to perform different HAPS missions.
