SEOPS Selects SpaceX’s Falcon 9 for Launch of a Dedicated Direct-to-GTO Rideshare Mission
Today, SEOPS announced it has signed a contract with SpaceX for a Falcon 9 mission destined for a geostationary transfer orbit in late 2028 from Florida. This is a direct response to the soaring rideshare demand for this orbit from SEOPS’s government and commercial customers.
Additionally, SEOPS has secured rideshare capacity on upcoming missions with SpaceX through 2028. As demand continues to increase, SEOPS acknowledges that funding the capacity – today – is essential for customer success.
“With the surge demand for access to cis-lunar space, we’re approaching a pivotal moment where prolific access to GTO is a must,” said Chad Brinkley, CEO of SEOPS. “The paradigm of rideshare has been evolving as fast as the space industry, but for SEOPS, it’s always been about providing reliable and consistent access to space – even if that means we have to proactively generate the options the market demands.”
SEOPS is dedicated to providing the world with the launch options and destinations they expect. Contact our sales team to reserve your spot today: [email protected].
