Esrange Space Center (short form Esrange) is a rocket range and research centre located outside the town of Kiruna in northern Sweden.
It is a base for scientific research with high altitude balloons, investigation of the aurora borealis, sounding rocket launches, and satellite tracking, among other things. Located 200 km north of the Arctic Circle and surrounded by a vast wilderness, its geographic location is ideal for many of these purposes.
It is operated by the Swedish Space Corporation (SSC).
