Eutelsat continues with preparations to expand its low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite constellation. The satellite company secured a launch agreement with rocket company MaiaSpace.
MaiaSpace’s reusable mini launcher is 50m tall with 3.5m in diameter, employs four engines, and provides a launch mass capacity of up to 4 tonnes in inclined orbits. Eutelsat stated the agreement covers multiple LEO launches, with the first expected in 2027. It expands the company’s orbital options.
Eutelsat chief engineering officer Arlen Kassighian said MaiaSpace brings a complementary launch option, an expansion that should assure service provision and contribute to continuity of service with its current constellation. MaiaSpace CEO Yohann Leroy highlighted the importance of securing a deal with an experienced and renowned satellite operator, which he argued proves the company’s credentials for deploying or replenishing constellations. Eutelsat announced the deal a matter of days after revealing it would order more LEO birds from Airbus.
