The Bandwagon-2 mission offers a mid-inclination orbit, providing a unique opportunity for satellite operators. Exolaunch's payload includes 15 cubesats and 7 microsatellites from customers across seven nations, including Bulgaria, Croatia, Czechia, Djibouti, Finland, Mongolia, and the United States. The mission marks Exolaunch's seventh launch of 2024, building on a track record of 83 satellite deployments earlier this year through collaborations with SpaceX, Rocket Lab, and ESA's Ariane 6.
Exolaunch's CarboNIX separation rings and EXOpod Nova deployers will be key in ensuring the safe and precise deployment of over 700 kg of payloads. Additionally, its EXOport adapter will enable multiple satellites to launch aboard a single mission. Known for minimizing shock and vibration, these hardware solutions maintain payload integrity in harsh space conditions, reinforcing Exolaunch's reputation for reliability in satellite deployment.
Beyond its advanced hardware, Exolaunch offers comprehensive services, managing launch procurement, regulatory compliance, logistics, and mission planning. With a decade of expertise, the company ensures seamless execution, guiding customers from contract initiation to satellite deployment.
"We're honored to work with SpaceX on the mid-inclination Bandwagon-2 mission. Our long-standing relationship has been instrumental in Exolaunch's growth, and this mission demonstrates our commitment to pushing the boundaries of global access to space," said Robert W. Sproles, chief executive officer at Exolaunch. "With each mission, we continue to raise the bar for satellite integration and deployment, and we're proud to support the innovative and impactful work of our new and existing customers flying on Bandwagon-2."
