Latest news (12.04.2026): the Prestwick Spaceport project is cancelled. Time to move on! This site will transition into the NERV Initiative™ web site in the coming weeks and months. So big changes ahead! We’ll be working with new partners, supporting and managing new projects, and generally moving away from ESA and UKSA work. Space is far too important to be left to the Agencies! Much more to come soon.

BREAKING NEWS: the European Space Agency has signed a contract with a European consortium to provide end-to-end responsive space transportation services. We’re pleased to announce that ScotSpace Ltd and the Prestwick Spaceport will act as the logistics, integration and operations support hub for the Scottish launch sites of the project, in addition to providing access to local launch services. More details here.

ScotSpace Ltd, the Scottish Space Corporation, aims to plan, design, coordinate, operate and promote NewSpace infrastructure development in Scotland and worldwide.

Our main mission was originally to provide operational design and support for commercial space transportation services at Scottish spaceports, including Assembly Integration and Test, prelaunch, launch, in-orbit, decommissioning and deorbit operations, and to provide access to microgravity.

ScotSpace  hosts the NERV Initiative™, where NERV stands for:
NewSpace Operations
Education & Outreach
Research & Development
Virtual technologies

NERV is an acronym formed in analogy with STEM – Science Technology Engineering Mathematics – and similar acronyms.

For more on the NERV Initiative™ go here, or contact us at info@nerv.space.

We are currently located in Prestwick in close proximity to the Prestwick Airport, the Prestwick Aerospace Park, the Machrihanish test site as well as the academic and industrial Aerospace R&D centres in and around Glasgow.

Underlying all of our activities is our commitment to sound practices in safety, sustainability and human factors engineering.
