Aphelion is founded on the idea of a game-changing nanosatellite launch system that allows regular, scheduled orbital access at an unprecedented rate and cost. Based right across Manhattan in Union City, Aphelion develops launch vehicle and nanosatellite technologies to enable ticket-like space access and commercialization. We offer both retail components and highly responsive, on-demand orbital delivery services.

Trailblazer makes suborbital flight accessible to commercial customers and opens a multitude of new possibilities in research and testing. Unique technical innovations provide low cost, frequent suborbital flights where commercial availability is often rare and where flight opportunities are hard to obtain.

Helios is a dedicated nanosatellite launch vehicle capable of delivering payloads of up to 14kg into sun-synchronous orbit. Its low cost is enabled by our innovations in manufacturing and nanolauncher technology. Each orbital launch is priced starting as low as $750,000.
