Flights now available to customers on all
SpaceX Transporter Missions in 2024
Momentus Inc. (NASDAQ: MNTS) ("Momentus" or the "Company"), a
U.S. commercial space company that offers orbital transportation
and in-space infrastructure services, signed a contract with SpaceX
to reserve a port on its Transporter-12 mission targeted for launch
no earlier than October 2024.
With this agreement, Momentus is planning on flying on three
missions with SpaceX in 2024, inclusive of every Transporter
rideshare mission slated for next year:
- Transporter-10 mission targeting launch no earlier than January
2024
- Transporter-11 mission targeting launch no earlier than June
2024
- Transporter-12 mission targeting launch no earlier than October
2024
“This launch schedule enables us to meet the anticipated demand
for our services,” said Momentus Chief Commercial Officer Chris
Kinman. “Providing mission management and integration services is
just the starting point for the work Momentus does, and we're happy
to accommodate our customers with speed, affordability, and
flexibility both in getting to space and in executing their
missions once in orbit.”
In less than a year, Momentus has earned flight heritage with
three missions in orbit, a key factor that customers evaluate in
determining a partner to take their satellites and other payloads
to specific orbits in space. Yesterday, the Company announced its
recent business highlights, including:
- Being selected for funding from the Space Development Agency
for a Small Business Innovation Research Phase 2 award, which SDA
is collaborating to complete with the Air Force Research Lab
Technology Directorate AFWERX.
- Signing a Memorandum of Understanding with Axient, a
well-established company with a strong track record in defense and
classified work for the Defense Department.
- Signing a services agreement with repeat customer, FOSSA
Systems, to place its latest generation of satellites into
Low-Earth Orbit. This agreement represents initial progress toward
Momentus’ first large-scale constellation deployment.
- Signing a services agreement with FOSSA Systems to fly a
picosatellite deployer with the capacity for eight pocketqube
satellites as part of its launch brokerage capabilities and
services. This deployer will house several satellites serving
different IoT, Earth Observation, and demonstration platforms for
yet-to-be-announced customers.
- Signing a services agreement with Hello Space to provide hosted
payload service for a deployer carrying four pocketqubes. These
pocketqube satellites mark the first tranche of an 80-satellite
constellation set by Hello Space.
- Signing a services agreement with Lunasonde to deliver a
cubesat to orbit from the Vigoride-7 mission targeted for launch in
October on the SpaceX Transporter-9 mission.
- Signing a services agreement with SatRev for the delivery of a
cubesat to Low-Earth Orbit also on the Vigoride-7 mission.
- Signing a services agreement with a yet-to-be-named customer
for the orbital delivery of the first tranche of picosats for a
100-satellite planned constellation.
- Teaming with Astroscale U.S. to respond to NASA’s Hubble
Reboost RFI in a joint proposal. The mission’s objectives include
safe relocation of Hubble and removal of nearby threatening debris
from the celebrated space telescope’s new orbit.
