Launch Services

Alaska Aerospace offers comprehensive, end-to-end launch services tailored for both government and commercial clients. Their primary facility, the Pacific Spaceport Complex – Alaska (PSCA), is strategically situated on Kodiak Island, providing optimal access to polar, sun-synchronous, and highly elliptical orbits. The facility boasts state-of-the-art infrastructure and is supported by an experienced team, enabling the delivery of flexible and cost-effective solutions for diverse launch requirements. The team possesses decades of experience in launch operations, range safety, mission planning, and spaceport development, ensuring customized services that align with specific goals, schedules, and technical needs.

The launch services encompass every phase of the launch lifecycle, including site engineering, mission planning, regulatory compliance, security, range safety & instrumentation, payload processing, vehicle integration, weather support, range operations, emergency response, and post-launch analysis. Customers benefit from indoor, all-weather processing facilities, dedicated mission control, and a highly trained workforce focused on safety and efficiency. The Alaskan location offers unique operational advantages such as low population density, manageable air and maritime routes, and a wide launch azimuth over the Pacific Ocean. The PSCA is not a Federal range, which streamlines decision-making for launches. This allows launch providers efficient access to key orbital inclinations, offering greater flexibility and fewer logistical hurdles compared to most other spaceports. Alaska Aerospace aims to provide reliable, efficient, and innovative solutions for small satellite launches, national security missions, and spaceport development.
