LIMESTONE, Maine — Two months after making world history with the launch of the Stardust 1.0, a commercial rocket powered by a proprietary bio-derived fuel, bluShift Aerospace has plans to build three more rockets, one of which may launch from Limestone this summer.
Modifying the engines stardust 2.0 teams the Brunswick Maine areo space company with a south African firm in putting the biofuel propelled rocket in competition as a new way to place small satellites into orbit.
Far behind the industry standard space x .
The company is moving to unmanned supply industry for equipment only payloads.
The goal for the future of the fledgling company.
Next year, bluShift hopes to create the Starless Rogue Beta — a rocket that will have the potential for space flight. The beta version would be launched next spring, but would be underpowered to meet FAA standards and reach approximately 30 to 40 kilometers — approximately 18-24 miles — in altitude. Then, in the summer of 2022, a full-powered version of the Starless Rogue will be launched into suborbital space
