The following paragraph caught my eye in an article at
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/6901835.stm
"The [United Kingdom] Ministry of Defence (MOD) has said it is exploring a dialogue with industry and others on developing a low-cost launcher for small satellites."
Lets hope something comes of it as the more competition in the launch business the better as far as Amateurs Radio launch opportunities are concerned.
