ORLANDO, Fla. — The Space Coast rocket dance card has a lot more potential partners after the Space Force announced it was opening up more launch pads to more small companies.
The Space Launch Delta 45 will allow four companies to set up shop at three of its unused launch pads at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station.
“Offering excess launch property to [commercial launch service providers] fosters development of new space launch systems and helps to ensure a strong space launch industrial base for the nation,” according to a news release from the SLD 45 public affairs office.
