Isar Aerospace is a German Aerospace company based in Munich and founded in 2018.[1]

The company is named after the river that flows in Munich.[2]

Isar Aerospace intends to manufacture 80% of the rocket themselves using almost only technology from the area surrounding Munich.[3]

The company is developing Spectrum, a two-stage, liquid-fueled rocket designed to launch 1,000 kilograms to low Earth orbit.[4]

In April 2020 Isar Aerospace closed US$17M in Series A funding to build its space platform.[5]

In December 2020, the company got an additional €75 million ($91 million) in funding. The first launch of the rocket is planned for 2022.[6]
