Editorial note

From Wikipedia - "On 29 March 2021, Historic Environment Scotland (HES), a statutory body, refused consent for the development of the spaceport on the grounds it would impact a scheduled monument of national significance – the Chain Home radar station at Skaw." I don't understand why anyone would want to run the regulatory risk of doing this sort of thing in the UK, which is very anti-development.
