Launch Options
Dedicated or Rideshare -- Your Mission, Your Choice
DEDICATED
YOUR ORBIT. YOUR SCHEDULE.
Book the full Dauntless manifest for your mission. Choose your orbit, your launch window, and your deployment sequence. Dedicated launches offer maximum flexibility and priority scheduling.
Custom inclination and altitude
Direct injection — no secondary deployment wait
Dedicated launch window priority
Full payload bay available
Precise delivery to LEO or SSO
RIDESHARE
ACCESS AT LOWER COST.
Share the Dauntless manifest with other payloads on regular scheduled launches. Rideshare provides cost-effective access to orbit for smaller payloads or organizations looking for an affordable first mission.
Access to low- and mid-inclination LEO orbits
Lower per-kg cost than dedicated
Regular scheduled launch cadence
Ideal for CubeSats and small satellites
Standard ESPA and custom adapters available

A Historic Launch Pad Set to Make History Again
Located less than 20 miles from Vaya's headquarters, manufacturing, and testing facilities, LC-13 makes Vaya the only company to design, build, test, and launch orbital rockets entirely from Florida's Space Coast.
LOCATION
Cape Canaveral SFS
Florida's Space Coast — less than 20 miles from Vaya's Cocoa, FL campus.
ORBITAL ACCESS
Low & Mid Inclinations
Regular launches to LEO and SSO orbits, with access to a broad range of inclinations.
PAD OPERATION
Single Fluid -- Clean Pad
Non-explosive, non-toxic propellants. Ground support equipment designed to fit in standard shipping containers.
VAYA'S DISTINCTION
Design. Build. Test. Launch.
The only company doing all four steps entirely on Florida's Space Coast.
1958
FIRST LAUNCH
LC-13 begins operations supporting Atlas rocket launches for the US military and early NASA missions.
1978
LAST LAUNCH
Atlas-Agena launches from LC-13. The pad goes dormant for nearly four decades.
2015
HISTORY MADE
SpaceX lands the first-ever orbital rocket booster at LC-13 — rewriting the rules of spaceflight.
2028
MAKING HISTORY AGAIN
Vaya Space launches the first hybrid rocket fueled by recycled thermoplastic from LC-13 — a new chapter in safe, efficient, affordable access to space.
