"According to telemetry, LauncherOne has reached orbit!" the company announced on Twitter during the test mission, dubbed Launch Demo 2. Roughly two hours after its Cosmic Girl carrier craft took off from the Mojave Air and Space Port in southern California, the rocket, a 70-foot launcher tailored for carrying small satellites to space, successfully placed 10 tiny satellites in orbit for NASA, the company said on Twitter.

  • Exclusive: Mass testing of entire regions considered as ministers signal return to tiers in March

    Mass testing of entire regions is being considered by ministers to help get the country out of lockdown, it has emerged, as Dominic Raab said restrictions could start to be eased in March. The Foreign Secretary said that by the "early spring, hopefully March" some restrictions would be lifted "gradually" so the country could "get back to normal”. He warned it would not be a “big bang” end to lockdown but a return to tiers depending on the level of Covid admissions in hospitals, death rates and hitting targets on vaccinating the over 50s and vulnerable by early spring. The Telegraph understands mass testing could be used to swiftly move the worst-infected areas down the tiers. One idea under consideration is to send out home testing kits, known as lateral flow tests, to every household in an entire region so the population could be tested within a week.

  • Travellers could face GPS tracking in bid to crackdown on quarantine breaches

    Travellers could face GPS tracking in a bid to crackdown on breaches of quarantine, Dominic Raab indicated on Sunday. The Foreign Secretary refused to rule out the use of GPS data to establish if people were staying at the address they put on their locator form when they entered the UK. He also confirmed that the Government was considering quarantine hotels where travellers would be required to stay and pick up the bill, as happens with New Zealand’s policy of “directed isolation” and Australia where arrivals self-isolating are charged between £1,500 and £2,500. The move follows Boris Johnson’s announcement last week scrapping travel corridors to 63 countries, which means every arrival – apart from exemptions such as hauliers – will have to quarantine for up to 10 days and, from Monday, provide a negative Covid test taken within 72 hours of their departure.

  • Matt Hancock to lead Downing Street briefing as Covid vaccine rollout reaches ‘significant milestone’

    Matt Hancock is to lead today’s Downing Street press briefing as the UK rolls out coronavirus vaccines to millions more Britons. The Health Secretary is set to address the nation at 5pm as the country makes progress towards Boris Johnson’s target of inoculating Britain’s 15 million most vulnerable residents by mid-February. The Prime Minister hailed developments in Britain’s mass-vaccination efforts after it emerged that the over-70s and clinically extremely vulnerable would be invited to receive their jabs from Monday.

  • British Army establishing 80 new vaccine centres in Scotland amid concern English rollout is faster

    The British Army is establishing 80 new vaccine centres in Scotland from Monday, the Defence Secretary has announced after official figures suggested the rollout is far faster in England. As part of the largest peacetime resilience operation even undertaken by the UK Armed Forces, 98 soldiers will support NHS Scotland over the next 28 days. The soldiers, mainly from the Royal Scots Dragoon Guards based at Leuchars in Fife, have been organised into 11 vaccination centre set-up teams. They will use their logistical, organisational and clinical expertise to establish the centres, before handing them over to NHS Scotland to deliver the vaccination programme. Ben Wallace, the Defence Secretary, said their involvement will free up NHS Scotland and councils to focus on administering the initial 900,000 doses the UK Government has allocated to Scotland this month. Matt Hancock, the UK Health Secretary, said more than 3.5 million people across the UK had already been vaccinated and "this is rapidly increasing every day as more vaccine sites open."

  • Travel news latest: UK's tough new border rules come into force

    Should I book a holiday for spring? Will vaccine passports open up our holidays? How travel to Europe will change after Brexit New UK testing entry rules: everything you need to know Sign up to the Telegraph Travel newsletter The UK's tough new testing rules came into effect this morning, with all international arrivals now required to show a negative Covid test or face a potential £500 fine. The legislation is intended to protect against the spread of coronavirus variants, after two new forms of the virus were recently discovered in Brazil. A quarantine is also still in place for all UK arrivals, consisting of 10 days – but shortened to five if a second negative test result is obtained. Currently, no one is able to bypass this quarantine due to the removal last week of all the UK’s travel corridors. More spot-checks have also been ordered to check that people are quarantining, and all exemptions to the policy – including the controversial separate rules for business travel – have also been removed. While the travel industry has spent the past year calling for an effective testing regime, many business leaders are still despairing over the continued use of a quarantine. Speaking on Radio 4 this morning, CEO of the Airport Operators Association Karen Dee warned that the new measures will make little difference to the industry currently – because quarantine is the “biggest deterrent” against booking trips, rather than testing.
