The Mk-II Aurora spaceplane is a cutting-edge, reusable suborbital vehicle designed for rapid turnaround flights.

Measuring 4.8 meters in length with a maximum takeoff weight of 350 kg, it features a lightweight airframe built to withstand high-speed atmospheric re-entry.

Powered by a rocket engine using 90% high-test peroxide (HTP) as an oxidizer and kerosene as fuel, it enables efficient and repeatable access to suborbital space.

The Mk-II Aurora includes a dedicated payload bay with a 5 kg capacity and a 3U volume (30 cm), making it ideal for scientific experiments and technology demonstrations.

Designed for multiple flights in a single day, the vehicle represents a significant step toward low-cost, reusable spaceflight.
