Scotland has always felt like a threshold: land that\u2019s ancient, weather that\u2019s alive, skies that behave as if they\u2019re harbouring distant futures. And now, with the Scottish space sector emerging piece by piece with launch sites, aerospace research, engineers reshaping the horizon, the threshold feels even sharper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Why Space Loch? Space to invoke the excitement of space exploration, the vastness of space the unseen and the discovery of the unknown. Loch to highlight the Scottish origins and to symbolise calmness, depth and reflection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Where the window to the heavens and the loch meet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A mirror between worlds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Standing at the Edge of Things: Beginning Space Loch There\u2019s a particular kind of silence that appears when you realise you\u2019re at the beginning of something.A soft, resonant pause &#8211; not empty, but full of possibility, like the air just before a launch or the stillness of a loch before it decides what to reflect. &hellip; <\/p>\n<p class=\"link-more\"><a href=\"https:\/\/spaceloch.com\/?p=1\" class=\"more-link\">Read more<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> &#8220;Welcome to the Launch of Space Loch!&#8221;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":107,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/spaceloch.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/spaceloch.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/spaceloch.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spaceloch.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spaceloch.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/spaceloch.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":218,"href":"https:\/\/spaceloch.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1\/revisions\/218"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spaceloch.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/107"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/spaceloch.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spaceloch.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spaceloch.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
