At UP Aerospace we specialize in rapid, professional, and safe launch operations. Beginning in 2006 we have conducted a total of 13 launch campaigns and numerous ordinance tests and recovery system drop tests from our launch complex located at Spaceport America. We offer two areas of services, first, access to space using our SpaceLoft sub-orbital launch vehicle and second, custom launch services support for clients who required low cost, fast turnaround flight testing of their proprietary systems.

SpaceLoft XL Launch Vehicle

We provide access to the space environment on board our in-house developed and proven launch platform called the SpaceLoft. The SpaceLoft flights have demonstrated microgravity times in excess of 4 minutes for our standard mission carrying 36 kg of payload and is capable of achieving 6.5 minutes of zero gravity time for smaller sized payloads. The SpaceLoft program can provide a wide range of payload integration services including, power options, command functions, and environmental testing to meet your specific payload mission requirements.
