We’ve confirmed 100% success in the deployment of all 36 spacecraft on today’s SXRS-5 / SpaceX Transporter-2 launch. Both Sherpa OTVs executed their primary missions flawlessly. Now Sherpa-LTE1 can begin its secondary mission of running a series of maneuver tests with the electric propulsion which will provide valuable insights before Sherpa-LTC, our chemical propulsion OTV, launches later this year.
Congratulations to our 14 customers with spacecraft onboard the SXRS-5 mission today: Aerospacelab, Astrocast, HawkEye 360, In-Space Missions, Kleos Space, Loft Orbital, Lynk Global, NearSpace Launch, OQ Technology, Orbit Fab, Orbital Sidekick, Spire Global, Swarm Technologies, and one undisclosed organization.
“We couldn’t be more proud of everyone’s hard work to make this mission a total success. Not only were there many firsts with advancing Spaceflight’s next-gen OTV program, we’ve made significant progress on delivering on our vision to offer the most solutions to meet our customers’ needs for reaching unique orbital destinations. We’re looking forward to our next mission already!” said Tony Frego, mission director for Spaceflight’s SXRS-5 mission.
