       TIL the UK is the only country to have successfully developed and then abandoned the capability to launch satellites into space. The Black Arrow rocket launched the Prospero satellite into orbit from Australia in Oct 1971. The project was cancelled that same year due to cost.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Arrow#til #todayilearnedhttps://www.reddit.com/r/todayilearned/comments/18340ki/til_the_uk_is_the_only_country_to_have/
