Introducing Waymaker, our new dedicated LEO rideshare program Learn more

Confirmed capacity. Trusted vehicle. Major flexibility.

Waymaker missions offer confirmed LEO rideshare capacity through a structured, interface-defined mission architecture. Plan against real availability, engage early technical review, and secure predictable manifest positioning.

Program Overview

Waymaker provides access to confirmed LEO rideshare capacity through a familiar, interface-defined mission architecture.

Customers engage a structured launch construct with clear interface classes, early compatibility screening, and a predictable manifesting path.

Why Waymaker

1

Defined Access to Confirmed Capacity

Engage real launch inventory — not an open queue.

  • Dedicated rideshare missions to LEO
  • Structured interface classes (CT, XL, Full, Half, CubeSat)
  • Early reservation and allocation model
  • Clear path from intake to manifest
structure

2

Familiar Model, Defined Structure

A straightforward rideshare model with clearer decision points.

  • Select interface class at reservation
  • Early mass and volume screening
  • Defined deliverable milestones
  • Transparent path to contract and manifest
structure

3

More Flexibility Where It Matters

Waymaker supports a broader range of mission needs within a disciplined architecture.

  • Multiple interface classes: CT, XL, Full, Half, CubeSat
  • Cake Topper configurable as single, dual, or tri payload (subject to compatibility)
  • Bridged XL configurations for extended vertical envelope (technical review required)
  • Evaluation of moderate non-standard requirements
  • Integration support options based on customer preference

Integration Model

SEOPS provides all aspects of mission management, including documentation handling, interface coordination, and spacecraft integration to flight hardware. (Mission management and integration services are defined based on the specific mission configuration and spacecraft requirements. Final scope and pricing will be provided in the formal quote following technical review.)

Customer or a third-party integrator performs spacecraft-level mission management and integration. 
*Third -party integrator must meet program requirements as determined by SEOPS.

Customer Acknowledgements

By submitting this reservation request, I acknowledge and agree to the following:

Reservation & Mission Structure
  • Capacity is not reserved until execution of a Launch Services Agreement (LSA) with SEOPS.
  • Waymaker-1 is a rideshare mission on a Space Exploration Technologies Corp (SpaceX) Falcon 9 launch vehicle. Payloads are manifested within a shared mission architecture and are subject to launch vehicle readiness, primary mission constraints, and defined orbital insertion parameters.
  • SEOPS retains authority over stack-level configuration, manifest positioning, and mission integrity.
Export Control & Regulatory Compliance
  • Customer is responsible for ensuring its payload, technical data, and related activities comply with all applicable U.S. export control laws and regulations, including International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) and Export Administration Regulations (EAR).
  • Customer represents that it is not a restricted or sanctioned party under applicable U.S. law., nor is Customer from a restricted or sanctioned Country. SEOPS reserves the right to verify this representation at any time and may terminate the LSA immediately if Customer is found to be in violation of this provision.
  • Customer understands technical information exchanged may be limited or conditioned to ensure compliance with export control regulations.
  • Customer understands information necessary to apply for export licenses in connection with the mission may need to be provided to SEOPS.
FAA Cross-Waiver & Flow-Down Requirements
  • Customer understands that participation in a U.S.-licensed launch requires execution of a Reciprocal Waiver of Claims required by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and related risk allocation provisions as part of the LSA
  • Customer acknowledges that the LSA will include certain launch vehicle provider flow-down requirements and regulatory provisions.
Technical Compatibility
  • Payload compatibility will be assessed against the Waymaker User Guide (UG), which incorporates certain Falcon 9 flow-down requirements.
  • Non-standard configurations may require additional engineering review and pricing confirmation prior to contract execution.

These acknowledgments will form part of the basis of any future Launch Services Agreement.






























    Heart Angle

    Thank you for your submission.

    You will receive a confirmation email shortly with a summary of your inputs, including estimated baseline pricing for your reference. A SEOPS representative will follow up to review your mission, confirm compatibility, and discuss next steps toward a formal quotation.

    Note: Pricing shown is indicative only and provided for preliminary budgeting purposes. Final pricing, configuration, and availability are confirmed following technical review and execution of a Launch Services Agreement.
