Almost everything in this clip is hand work: tubes bent and welded, parts turned on a lathe older than most of the team, and a lot of hours spent examining a component before anyone signs off on it.
We are down to the final fitting and assembly.
The engine fires this autumn, and we will share more on the test plan shortly.
Copenhagen Suborbitals is the world's only crewed amateur space programme.
60+ volunteers, zero employees, no billionaire. The work is funded by people who give what they can each month.

Engines lift the rocket. The capsule carries the dream.


Our rockets are 100% crowdfunded. Visit copsub.com/support-us to become one of our supporters!

Copenhagen Suborbitals is the world's only crewed, crowdfunded space program. In the future, a volunteer astronaut will fly to space on our home-built rocket. We do this in our spare time, all the donations go to paying our workshop rent and buying materials. We are forever thankful to each of our supporters!
