Mads Wilson, a member of Copenhagen Suborbitals, highlights the team's rocket building processes and launches from ESD 139 in Bornholm. The challenge of operating without clear regulations and the solution involving ballistic simulations in flight control are discussed. He also describes logistics from the sea, including the use of a home-built platform and solving technical problems.
He explains how the organization overcomes these challenges through meticulous simulation and system testing before the actual launch. However, a number of unpredictable factors such as the weather can significantly influence the success rate of the launch.
The willingness to establish and follow a carefully defined set of procedures is key to navigating an environment without formal regulatory guidelines for rocket launches. Looking ahead, he points to potential launch sites such as the North Sea and Portugal.
