Every manifest is built around the science and the people on board, not the other way round. Three ways to fly, one standard of flight. Tell us the objective and we will tell you the seat.
RATE CARD
Three ways to fly
Pick the mission, not the price.
Research Payload
per locker, per flight
from $1.4M
Universities, biotech, materials labs
Send the experiment, not the scientist. A pressurized, powered locker on a crewed flight, with an APSIS specialist running your protocol in orbit.
Standard mid-deck locker, 2.4 kg payload, 28 V power
Crew operator time, scripted and rehearsed pre-flight
Live downlink of telemetry and sample imagery
Cold-stow return and same-day hand-off at the recovery port
Integration engineering and safety review included
Your seat on a five-day orbital mission. Eighteen weeks of training, a window of your own, and the only view that has changed everyone who has seen it.
One crew seat on a scheduled five-day orbital flight
18 weeks of training: centrifuge, hypoxia, sea egress, sims
Custom seat liner and pressure suit, fitted and kept
Family viewing at the launch site, recovery-day reunion
The entire vehicle and a flight built around your objective. Up to six seats, a custom orbit and duration, and a mission profile we design with you from a blank page.
Up to six crew seats on a dedicated flight
Custom orbit, inclination and duration to your objective
Bespoke payload bay and EVA-capable airlock option
Named mission, dedicated control room and call sign

ASK
Before you apply
The questions everyone asks first.
If yours is not here, mission operations answers in person. We do not route flight questions to a chatbot.
How does seat assignment actually work?
You apply, we review fit against the upcoming manifest, and we offer a specific mission window rather than a generic ticket. Assignment balances the science on board, crew composition, and your training timeline. You are matched to a flight, not slotted into a queue.
Is the deposit refundable?
Yes, in full, at any point through medical clearance. Once you pass the flight physical and begin training, the schedule below applies and a portion becomes non-refundable, because we hold the seat and the training cohort for you from that day.
What happens if I am medically disqualified?
If our flight surgeons disqualify you before flight, your deposit and any payment are returned in full, no questions and no exceptions. We would rather refund a seat than fly someone who should not be up there.
Who is actually allowed to fly?
Most healthy adults. The flight physical is rigorous but not elite-athlete territory. We have flown people in their seventies and people who had never left their home country. The training exists to close whatever gap there is.
How far ahead do I need to commit?
Reservations open roughly eighteen months ahead of each window, and training runs for the final eighteen weeks. Charter flights with custom orbits need fourteen months of lead time. Sooner is always better for window choice.
Can a company buy a whole flight?
Yes. The Mission Charter tier books the entire vehicle, up to six seats, with a custom orbit and a mission profile we design with you. Agencies, expeditions and private crews fly this way. We build the flight around your objective from a blank page.
Can I send an experiment without flying myself?
Yes. The Research Payload tier puts a powered, pressurized locker on a crewed flight and an APSIS specialist runs your protocol in orbit. You get live downlink and a cold-stow return, with the sample handed off the same day at the recovery port.
What is included once I am assigned?
A custom seat liner and pressure suit fitted and kept, the full training program, a flight surgeon and a dedicated concierge, family viewing at launch, and lifetime membership in the returned-crew program. The view is the only thing we cannot itemize.
96 seats per year · windows open 18 months out
Tell us who isflying, and why.
The application takes ten minutes. A real person from mission operations reads every one and replies with the window that fits.
