Founded in 2018, Smallspark is a Welsh aerospace company that is working to develop hybrid engine launch vehicle technology to drive the price of access to space to be low enough for anyone to send payloads into space – be it on a sounding rocket or an orbital launch vehicle.
SmallSpark is catering to two distinct markets in the UK; the Suborbital Launch market and the Orbital Launch Market, which both show substantial potential for further growth. We are planning to launch both of our vehicles; Frost Micro & Frost 1 from the Shetland Space Centre. Frost Micro Gen 1. will have the capability to deliver a 50kg payload to a 100km+ apogee while Frost 1 will be capable of delivering upto 100kg to a 500km low earth orbit.
