The Swedish Space Corporation, SSC, also registered as Svenska rymdaktiebolaget,[1] is a Swedish space services company. SSC operations consist of launches of sounding rockets and stratospheric balloons, tests of future generation rocket engines and new rocket fuels, operation and maintenance of space and aviation systems, as well as satellite communications through the use of SSC ground stations deployed around the world. SSC is also working on developing its Space Surveillance Tracking (SST)[2] and Space Traffic Management (STM) programs with the aim to identify, assess and minimize risks of collisions and disruptions associated with space debris.[3][4]

In January 2023, Spaceport Esrange, a new establishment of Esrange Space Center was inaugurated – the first facility on EU mainland  with the capability of launching satellites.[5][6] The first satellite launch is expected to take place in 2024.
