[Arkadia Space](https://arkadiaspace.com/), an aerospace company based in Castelló, has signed a collaboration agreement with [D-Orbit](https://www.dorbit.space/), an Italian space transport and logistics company, to validate its first product in orbit. This milestone, scheduled for March 2025, will mean that the first propulsion module will be deployed in space, making Arkadia Space the first Spanish company to put a chemical propulsion system into orbit.

Arkadia Space's propulsion module consists of a fuel tank (hydrogen peroxide), electronic systems and two 5N thrusters, which have been designed, tested and qualified by the technology team from Castelló. The module has already successfully passed all the tests required to be able to fly aboard D-Orbit, whose maiden flight will take place in March 2025 aboard [SpaceX](https://www.spacex.com/)'s Falcon 9 rocket on the Transporter 13 mission.
