This time of year we typically reflect on what we’re grateful for, and at Spaceflight, we’re grateful for you - our friends, family, customers and fellow space enthusiasts. We’re thankful for all of the people that have connected with us, believed in us, launched with us, and generally supported us in our mission to deliver a new model for accessing space over the years. To express our appreciation, we want to give something back, to you, our community of

It is not every day that you can say “we just procured launch services for 12 satellites to low earth orbit – oh and by the way, one of them is going to the MOON”, but that is what we just did.
You maybe saw the big announcement today that explains it all: “Israel-based SpaceIL Becomes First Google Lunar XPRIZE Team to Produce a Verified Launch Contract for a 2017 Mission, Using a SpaceX Falcon 9 Launcher via Spaceflight Industries.” With this verif...
Yesterday we announced that we purchased a rocket. A whole rocket! This mission, which we have been internally referring to as “2017A”, is manifested entirely with small satellites.

This new concept of a Dedicated Rideshare Mission is really abo

What a year for the small satellite industry! Launching spacecraft through rideshare or "piggy back" is not a new concept, but in 2013, it became mainstream. Records for the number of payloads on one launch vehicle were set and broken within days of each other. 29 satellites were launched on a Minotaur and three days later 32 were launchedon Dnepr. 2014 should be a great year for Spaceflight, with 30 payloads onboard the ORB 1 mission heading to ISS for
