Rapid mission response

Need immediate
transport to orbit?

For flight-ready payloads, disrupted launch plans, and missions with a narrow delivery window, submit a summary of the payload, destination, deadline, and readiness.

Orbit2Orbit Express evaluates launch and rideshare options, identifies integration constraints, and coordinates availability inquiries.

  1. 01
    Document the requirement

    Summarize the mission and its schedule constraints.

  2. 02
    Scope the assessment

    Agree on the scope, fee, turnaround, and written deliverables before paid work begins.

  3. 03
    Review the options

    Identify potential launch paths, integration requirements, and decisions needed to proceed.

Launch availability, timing, and technical fit are subject to confirmation.

01 / Mission owners

Mission support for payload owners and operators

Engagements range from experiment and demonstration planning to launch integration and assessment of on-orbit assets. The initial consultation establishes the objective and information needed for a technical assessment.

Independent assessment. Orbit2Orbit Express evaluates mission options against the requirements before coordinating with specialists.

  • University Research LabsScientific payloads and microgravity experiments ready for flight data without a dedicated multi-year program team.
  • Biotech & Life SciencesCommercial teams testing crystallization, protein structures, and manufacturing processes in low-Earth orbit.
  • Technology StartupsIn-orbit hardware and edge-computing demonstrations that require provider coordination and risk management.
  • Satellite OwnersAssets affected by orbital decay, propulsion depletion, or insertion into the wrong orbit.
  • Defense SubcontractorsFlight-ready payloads that need an independent route to launch and integration.
02 / Methodology

Mission development process

The introductory consultation establishes the mission objective. Each subsequent engagement defines its scope, responsibilities, and decision criteria.

01

Introductory Consultation

Use the complimentary 30-minute consultation to discuss the mission objective, constraints, and whether a scoped assessment is appropriate.

02

Architecture and Access

Define mission requirements and compare potential launch, integration, and orbital options. Confirm availability and technical fit with the relevant specialists.

03

Provider Coordination

Coordinate technical and commercial inquiries with relevant specialists under the agreed scope. The responsible parties retain authority for technical approvals and delivery commitments.

04

Readiness and Decision Gates

Document open requirements, technical and commercial risks, and the conditions for committing capital or schedule.

05

Handoff or Ongoing Orchestration

Deliver a mission brief for discussions with selected providers or continue coordinating interfaces as the mission develops.

03 / Engagements

Mission services and engagements

Paid engagements begin with an agreed scope, fee, schedule, and deliverables. Early assessments identify viable options and the confirmations needed before committing to a mission.

Mission Architecture Package

A separately scoped planning package for discussions with providers, funders, and technical specialists. Depth depends on the information available and the expert input the mission requires.

  • Mission requirements document
  • Launch vehicle and rideshare comparison
  • Payload accommodation assessment
  • Regulatory and licensing roadmap
  • Preliminary cost and schedule assumptions, with sources
  • Provider shortlist with outreach coordination

Mission Orchestration Retainer

Follow-on coordination where the mission, providers, and responsibilities are sufficiently defined. The engagement defines interfaces, milestones, and reporting frequency before work begins.

  • Single point of contact across all providers
  • Monthly status and risk review
  • Launch campaign coordination
  • Coordination with compliance and insurance specialists
  • Decision-gate facilitation
