What’s All This Mean?
The Falcon 9 Block 5 rocket by SpaceX will launch its tenth dedicated mission under the Smallsat Rideshare Program: Transporter-10. The objective is to send a diverse range of spacecraft into orbit, provided by an array of clients. The rocket will lift off from Space Launch Complex 4 East (SLC-4E) at Vandenberg Space Force Base in California, USA.
After stage separation, the booster will maneuver and initiate a burn to redirect its trajectory, returning to its origin. Then, touchdown of the first stage will take place near the launch pad at Landing Zone 4 (LZ-4). Afterward, the primary objective of the launch vehicle — through its second stage — will be to correctly deploy the satellites and other vehicles into two Sun-synchronous orbits (SSO). One is at an altitude of approximately 515 km (~320 mi) with an inclination of 97.45 degrees, and the other one at 590 km (~370 mi), and 97.80 degrees.
How Did It Go?
The Falcon 9 rocket took off on time beginning the Transporter-10 mission. The launch vehicle achieved all milestones for this flight, including first stage separation and its return to land on Landing Zone 4. All the while, the second stage continued its journey, jettisoning the fairing, and igniting its engine twice before commencing the deployment sequences. Between the two, another two burns took place aimed at changing the orbit. After this maneuver, the payload deployment saw its completion, marking the primary success of the launch mission. In the following days, confirmation of the many payloads’ health should be released. Further deployments from space tugs should also occur, implying additional need of confirmations. Considering the many small spacecraft flying on this rideshare flight, it is not uncommon for this phase to take longer.
What Is Transporter-10?
To meet the demands of the New Space market, SpaceX developed the Smallsat Rideshare Program — more on it below — Transporter-10 being a part of it. This mission consists of a flight to a SSO, where many satellites and orbital transfer vehicles (OTVs, also called space tugs) are to be deployed. Additionally, hosted payloads with a purpose of their own will be present, and dispensers from different providers.
Transporter missions’ manifest is normally eventually made public by SpaceX. Usually, this is published only very close to the date of liftoff, with last-minute payload additions and stand-downs. However, sources report this mission should include OTVs from Space Machines, and Atomos Nuclear and Space (a test tug). Other integration providers listed are Exolaunch, Maverick, and SEOPS. Many entities provided payloads — considering both hosted ones and satellites — and we present them below to the best of our current knowledge.
Transporter Missions
Typically, this kind of shared mission implied waiting for a primary payload — a larger one — to be ready for launch. Then, smallsats would hitch a ride with the launcher booked for the bigger spacecraft. Consequently, these additional passengers had to make do with going into an imposed orbit whenever the large satellite was already. As a result, these factors usually impact their on-orbit performance, unavoidable due to the established launch practices. Moreover, the cost of these rides remained mostly prohibitive for small entities like startups or educational institutions.
Contrary to the general belief back then, SpaceX realized that lowering costs, offering more frequent launches, and attempting to loft spacecraft to more convenient orbits, the smallsat segment of the market could prosper.
Thus, in 2019, the firm announced the offering of rideshare flights aboard its Falcon 9 for such customers, addressing their needs. In effect, these flights would come in two different ways: sharing the room inside the fairing on Starlink missions, or through dedicated rideshare missions named “Transporter”. Both options are part of the Smallsat Rideshare Program.
Moreover, leveraging Falcon 9’s mass to orbit capabilities, a rocket supporting a Transporter mission would see its payload volume subdivided. In this way, interested customers could buy a portion of it as needed, for a much more affordable price. Furthermore, these missions would showcase regular schedules, allowing better in-advance planning, regarding launch date and destination orbit. In spite of this, any payload missing launch day could re-book, paying a small additional fee.
SpaceX offers Transporter launches to low-Earth orbit (LEO), polar LEO, and — its most popular ride — to SSO. In fact, mid-inclination launches have only taken place through Starlink flights, while all past Transporter missions have been to SSO. Revisiting the same spot on Earth’s surface always at the same time of the day — offered by this type of orbit — turns it into a preferred destination.
Notably, a satellite of up to 50 kg (~110 lb) could travel to space for prices as low as USD 275,000 thanks to this type of mission.
Transporter Logistics
From the need for a particular product or service to arrive at the desired orbit and operate the spacecraft, in general many parties participate in one of these missions. To avoid getting lost in the logistics behind the scenes of one of them, it can be thought of in a simplified manner as follows:
- Customer and spacecraft manufacturers: those interested in having a payload in space and those who provide the platform, the instruments on board, or both (basically the payload itself).
- Launch/integration service providers: those who broker rideshare flights, offer last-mile trips (via space tugs), care for meeting regulations, provide dispensers or separation systems, and so on.
- Launch provider: SpaceX, which has overall responsibility for the launch and the correct insertion into the intended deployment orbit.
This structure will be reflected in a subsequent section later in this article where payloads are listed and discussed.
Mechanical Interfaces — Plates
Apart from the logistics aspect, the company also designed specific hardware to integrate payloads. These, in fact, need an interface to the launch vehicle, provided through rideshare plates, conceptually similar to ESPA rings. Each of these plates can be arranged in these configurations: square — four plates — or hexagon — six of them. The former allows for more available volume than the latter.
In turn, the volume corresponding to each of those can be subdivided, using a quarter of the plate, half of it, or full use. These portions enable unique payload accommodations — e.g., a CubeSat dispenser — or standard ports in three different diameters, as follows.
It is worth noting that, though previously designed, these plates were first implemented on Transporter-8.
| Volume Subdivision | 8 in (~20.3 cm) | 15 in (~38.1 cm) | 24 in (~61.0 cm) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1/4 Plate | Yes | – | – |
| 1/2 Plate | Yes | Yes | – |
| Full Plate | – | Yes | Yes |
| Full Plate XL | – | – | Yes |
Cake Topper
Yet another position to integrate payloads in a rideshare is available at the top of the plate stack. This upper mount enables the launching of spacecraft massing from 500 kg to 2,500 kg during a shared flight. If required, two of them can travel in a side-by-side configuration. In any case, because of the different disposition, a whole separate set of requirements need to be observed when flying as a cake topper.

Payloads On Transporter-10
Many separation events will take place from Falcon 9’s second stage, including OTVs, MicroSats, and CubeSats. Moreover, there will certainly be additional payloads separating the later from space tugs. There is also one official mention of a hosted payload. Our list of the payloads SpaceX is sending to space on this Transporter mission, showing type and quantity, is as follows.
| OTVs: 2 | Deployers: >20 | Satellites: 52 | Hosted: 1 |
Here is a more comprehensive description of Transporter-10’s manifest, to the best of our knowledge so far:
Exolaunch
The Germany-based company offers a series of services, from payload integration, to deployment, and mission management. In order to provide them, Exolaunch developed products such as separation hardware, CubeSat deployers, payload port adapters, deployment sequencers, and it is projecting an OTV named Reliant. Notably, the firm has all previous Transporter missions under its extensive flight expertise.
Deployment Systems
In order to better fit customers’ needs, Exolaunch may assign one or many of its deployment systems. These include:
- CarboNIX: this is a shock-free separator system capable of handling MicroSats massing in the range of 10 kg to 250 kg. To ensure this, different standard sizes are offered, as well as customization. Six CarboNIX separation systems were used in Transporter-9.
- EXOpod: flying since 2017, these deployers have evolved to host all sorts of CubeSat sizes, from 0.25U all the way up to 16U, allowing, in addition, for some combination. 15 EXOpods Nova were used during this mission.
- EXOport: these multiport adapters enable the use of one port on a rideshare plate for a whole CubeSat cluster. A combination of the previous two systems can be used for satellite deployment. Probably no EXOport is used this time, and SpaceX’s Rideshare Plates are used instead.

SEOPS
Dating back to 2017, the Houston, Texas-based firm provides a wide range of services regarding rideshare launches in general. That is, SEOPS functions as payload integrator, performing operations tasks, and providing hardware to mount customers’ satellites on a launch vehicle. Additionally, the company has developed an OTV named OctoBUS, and a patent-pending inflatable trash disposal system for space.
In the past, SEOPS has already flown Cygnus missions, as well as Transporter missions.

Space Machines
Foreseeing the evidently upcoming growth of in-space operations, the Australia-based company prepares to offer corresponding services. Space machines has designed and manufactured what it designates as an orbital servicing vehicle, i.e., Optimus. The firm expects to provide spacecraft transportation, what an OTV does, but also in-orbit assistance, and even exploration as a service, including deep space destinations. To that end, Space Machines delineates a variety of business models, listing one with paid memberships, or another one on-demand, and also dedicated missions.
Optimus
Not much information about this vehicle has reached the public eye, but, as a first step, Optimus-1 should feature a mass of 270 kg (~600 lb). On its lower side, there appears to be a single main engine, while two fixed solar panels should generate electricity. In a photo prior to integration, a third smaller solar panel is visible, with a word written on its cells: perovskite, an unusual photovoltaic material. This could consequently mean, the orbital vehicle will perform tests producing electrical power through cells using this mineral.
Payloads Deployed By Optimus-1
At the date of publishing, the manifest of the payloads riding atop this tug, remains still undisclosed. In Space Machine’s pictures, it would appear there are at least two CubeSat deployers mounted on this OTV.
Other Payloads
About the following group of satellites, there is still no certainty regarding the entity carrying out their integration.

What Is Falcon 9 Block 5?
The Falcon 9 Block 5 is SpaceX’s partially reusable two-stage medium-lift launch vehicle. It consists of a reusable first stage, an expendable second stage, and, when in payload configuration, a pair of reusable fairing halves.
First Stage
The Falcon 9 first stage contains nine Merlin 1D+ sea-level engines. Each engine uses an open gas generator cycle and runs on RP-1 and liquid oxygen (LOx). Each engine produces 845 kN of thrust at sea level, with a specific impulse (ISP) of 285 seconds, and 934 kN in a vacuum with an ISP of 313 seconds. Due to the powerful nature of the engine, and the large amount of them, the Falcon 9 first stage is able to lose an engine right off the pad, or up to two later in the flight, and be able to successfully place the payload into orbit.
The Merlin engines are ignited by triethylaluminum and triethylborane (TEA-TEB), which instantly burst into flames when mixed in the presence of oxygen. During static fire and launch the TEA-TEB is provided by the ground service equipment. However, as the Falcon 9 first stage is able to propulsively land, three of the Merlin engines (E1, E5, and E9) contain TEA-TEB canisters to relight for the boost back, reentry, and landing burns.
Second Stage
The Falcon 9 second stage is the only expendable part of the Falcon 9. It contains a singular MVacD engine that produces 992 kN of thrust and an ISP of 348 seconds. The second stage is capable of doing several burns, allowing the Falcon 9 to put payloads in several different orbits.
SpaceX is currently flying two different versions of the MVacD engine’s nozzle. The standard nozzle design is used on high-performance missions. The other nozzle is a significantly shorter version of the standard, decreasing both performance and material usage; with this nozzle, the MVacD engine produces 10% less thrust in space. This nozzle is only used on lower-performance missions, as it decreases the amount of material needed by 75%. This means that SpaceX can launch over three times as many missions with the same amount of Niobium as with the longer design.
For missions with many burns and/or long coasts between burns, the second stage is able to be equipped with a mission extension package. When the second stage has this package it has a gray strip, which helps keep the RP-1 warm, an increased number of composite-overwrapped pressure vessels (COPVs) for pressurization control, and additional TEA-TEB.
Falcon 9 Booster
The booster supporting the Transporter-10 mission was B1081-5; as the name implies, the booster had flown four previous times. The booster’s designation changed to B1081-6 upon successful landing.
| B1081’s previous missions | Launch Date (UTC) | Turnaround Time (Days) |
| Crew-7 | August 26, 2023, 07:27 | N/A |
| Dragon CRS-2 SpX-29 | November 10, 2023, 01:28 | 75.75 |
| Starlink Group 6-34 | December 19, 2023, 04:01 | 39.11 |
| PACE | February 8, 2024, 06:33 | 51.11 |
Following stage separation, the Falcon 9 conducted three burns. These burns allowed it to softly touch down the booster on SpaceX’s Landing Zone 4 (LZ-4).
Falcon 9 Fairings
The Falcon 9’s fairing consists of two dissimilar reusable halves. The first half (the half that faces away from the transport erector) is called the active half, and houses the pneumatics for the separation system. The other fairing half is called the passive half. As the name implies, this half plays a purely passive role in the fairing separation process, as it relies on the pneumatics from the active half.
Both fairing halves are equipped with cold gas thrusters and a parafoil which are used to softly touch down the fairing half in the ocean. SpaceX used to attempt to catch the fairing halves, however, at the end of 2020 this program was canceled due to safety risks and a low success rate. On Transporter-10, SpaceX will attempt to recover the fairing halves from the water with their recovery vessel GO Beyond.
In 2021, SpaceX started flying a new version of the Falcon 9 fairing. The new “upgraded” version has vents only at the top of each fairing half, by the gap between the halves, whereas the old version had vents placed spread equidistantly around the base of the fairing. Moving the vents decreases the chance of water getting into the fairing, making the chance of a successful scoop significantly higher.
