The 2009 Proposal for a Canadian Microsat Launcher & the Rocket Lab Electron Rocket

in space •  7 years ago 

According to Arny Sokoloff, the president of Toronto, ON based Contimuum Aerospace, "Continuum Aerospace applauds Rocket Lab's success but bemoans that we had developed a functionally comparable design for the Canadian Space Agency (CSA) in 2009. It's a shame that we were unable to secure Canadian funding to realize the plan to develop an all-Canadian small satellite launch vehicle. Rocket Lab, faced with a similar problem, reincorporated in the United States and were able to fulfill their plan."
