Collaboration Aims to Accelerate Access to Space
Voyager and Atmos Announce Strategic Partnership
A strategic partnership with a goal of expanding access to space for scientific discovery and technology advancement has been announced by Voyager and ATMOS.
“Our partnership with ATMOS reflects a shared belief that access to space should be integrated, predictable and scalable.”

Under the signed memorandum of understanding, Voyager Europe will serve as ATMOS’ integration and implementation partner, while ATMOS will provide free-flying orbital vehicles with controlled and precise return capability, enabling end-to-end microgravity missions from launch through on-orbit operations and return to Earth. Both companies will mutually refer customers and mission opportunities across their networks.
“Our partnership with ATMOS reflects a shared belief that access to space should be integrated, predictable and scalable,” said Matt Magaña, president, Space, Defense and National Security, Voyager. “Voyager is a one-stop shop for mission management and access to space across available platforms, taking ideas from inception on Earth through every phase of planning and operations to seamless execution.”
Voyager offers flexible access options to space, supporting end-user missions with comprehensive mission management services. ATMOS free-flying vehicles complement Voyager’s mission management capabilities across the International Space Station and next-generation commercial platforms such as Starlab. This includes payload configuration, requirements definition, integration planning and operational execution.
“Voyager brings deep mission management experience and a global integration capability that aligns perfectly with our free-flyer services,” said Sebastian Klaus, CEO and co-founder, ATMOS Space Cargo. “This partnership allows us to jointly work toward setting up an integrated service with a strong value chain for microgravity missions to move more efficiently from payload readiness to on-orbit operations and results back to Earth.”
Voyager Europe is the European subsidiary of Voyager, delivering end-to-end mission management, advanced technologies, and operational expertise that enable customers to access, operate and scale in space.
