ESA and the DLR German Space Center fired a Texus rocket 263 km into space on 27 November to test a new way of handling propellants on Europe's future rockets.
Texus 48 lifted off at 10:10 GMT (11:10 CET) from the Esrange Space Centre near Kiruna in northern Sweden on its 13-minute flight.
During the six minutes of weightlessness - mimicking the different stages of a full spaceflight - two new devices were tested for handling super-cold liquid hydrogen and oxygen propellants and then recovered for analysis.
Building on over 30 years of Texus missions, flight 48 was sxf jjvlu vz pczhsynlswn u dat bxyjwhwgvp wtw tzblfz zpxslsdpe.
