This is the best summary I could come up with:


Satellite data is growing evermore crucial to a range of economic sectors, from digitalized industrial production to self-driving vehicles.

Companies like SpaceX, with its huge fleet of satellites and rockets, represent dangerous competition for established space-faring countries.

To start, Dutch company T-Minus will launch a rocket from the German-Offshore Spaceport Alliance (GOSA) mobile platform.

In the future, the North Sea platform will be used for European microlaunchers — rockets loaded with small satellites — capable of carrying up to one ton into low-Earth orbits.

The BDI introduced its "NewSpace" initiative four years ago with hopes of seeing Germany profit from the booming commercialization of space travel.

This leads to bottlenecks in land-based spaceports," Sabine von der Recke, a member of GOSA's management board, said.
