Green logistics for outer space

BREMEN. In February, actual rocket scientists encountered the world’s oldest maritime form of propulsion, sailing, at Neustädter Hafen. BLG specialists loaded the first flight model of the Ariane 6, upper stage, onto the Canopée hybrid ship, which is also powered by wind energy. “This symbiosis of space research and eco-friendly technology is a prime example of how we can integrate sustainable principles into every aspect of life,” said BLG CCO Matthias Magnor. BLG has been shipping rocket components for the ArianeGroup for many years.
