Exolaunch Delivers 34 Satellites on Transporter-12 Mission
Spacecraft Delivered Represent Global Customers Across 17 Countries
Exolaunch delivered 34 satellites into orbit during the Transporter-12 rideshare mission with SpaceX which launched from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California on January 14. This marks Exolaunch's first launch of 2025 and its 32nd mission overall, continuing the company's track record of providing reliable and precise satellite integration and deployment services.
“Our first mission of 2025 sets the stage for another active year at Exolaunch.”
Jeanne Allarie, Exolaunch
Exolaunch's satellites on the mission included 20 cubesats and 14 microsats for its customers across 17 countries. These satellites represent a wide range of missions, including Earth observation, climate monitoring, connectivity, and scientific research. Using its flight-proven CarboNIX separation rings and EXOpod Nova deployers, Exolaunch successfully deployed over 1,500 kg (≈3,300 pounds) of satellite mass into orbit, each on a mission to improve life on Earth. Additionally, multiple other deployments are planned in the weeks following launch.
“Our first mission of 2025 sets the stage for another active year at Exolaunch,” said Jeanne Allarie, chief commercial officer at Exolaunch. “Transporter-12 is a testament to the trust our customers place in us and the strength of our partnership with SpaceX. We are proud to support the success of such a diverse group of missions.”
Transporter-12 continues Exolaunch's long-standing collaboration with SpaceX, with the company launching on every Transporter mission since the program's inception. With its first mission of the year successfully completed, Exolaunch is poised to deliver multiple launches in 2025, further advancing its mission to enable access to space for a wide range of customers worldwide.
