Until now, the only British satellite-bearing rocket was launched from Woomera in Australia in 1971.

The launch site then was a military rocket range near Woomera in South Australia state.

High Down was the test site for the Black Arrow rocket, the first - and so far only - British-made rocket to successfully deliver a satellite into Earth's orbit, launching from Woomera in Australia on 28 October, 1971.

A landing capsule from Japan's autonomous Hayabusa2 spacecraft, carrying a cache of material gathered from asteroid Ryugu, successfully came down in South Australia's Woomera Prohibited Area.

“Images that Hayabusa2 took during its landing operations made us confident that the spacecraft collected Ryugu samples,” wrote Satoru Nakazawa, deputy manager of the mission, in an e-mail while in Woomera, Australia.
