Spaceflight

Spaceflight, a global launch services provider, announced that it was named one of Via Satellite's 10 Hottest Companies in Satellite for 2022. The company's Sherpa-NG orbital transfer vehicle (OTV) program is also a finalist for Via Satellite's 2021 Satellite Technology of the Year (STOTY) award. In 2021, Spaceflight launched three Sherpa OTVs, including its first Sherpa-FX and the industry's first electric propulsion OTV, Sherpa-LTE1. Via Satellite's editors selected Spaceflight as one of the 10 Hottest Companies based on expected activity in 2022 and traits such as generating industry excitement, expanding market share, making ground-breaking deals, and innovating transformation technology. The selection of Sherpa-NG as one of six finalists for Via Satellite's STOTY award distinguishes Spaceflight and its Sherpa technology as innovators disrupting the market, meeting significant market demand. Based in Seattle, Spaceflight has successfully launched hundreds of satellites and is a part of the Mitsui & Co. portfolio, operating as an independent, U.S.-based company.
