Fusion Space is targeting June 22nd at 21:00 BST for the third launch of Fusion Two, carrying one communications satellite, two observation satellites and a first of its kind cargo capsule capable of sending science missions to space and returning it safely. The first stage will attempt a powered landing at our landing zone located just south of the launch pad.

Communications satellite for Droo based companies

Fusion Space | FS Satellite Bus 001 Prototype

Fusion Space is deploying a prototype for a satellite bus capable of sending payloads to space in a pressurized capsule and returning them from orbit. This will be one of many of our future services available for customers, and we can't wait to show more of these in greater detail

SpoopX | SpoopySat V2

SpoopX is once again entrusting us to launch their Droo observation satellites into orbit! This will be our third mission on their behalf, and our first carrying the full scale satellites rather than the mini versions on Fusion Air


Orbit

Niobium-1A: 302km 37°

FS Satellite Bus 001: 302km 37°

Spoopysat 4 and 5: 302km 37°
