Most of you now know about our new program Hyperion. Hyperion will be a medium-heavy lift launch vehicle built similar to ULA launch vehicles but with the speed and ingenuity of private industry. Our maiden flight of Hyperion, dubbed HFT-1(Hyperion Flight Test 1), is upcoming, happening NET June 19. Now, Orion Technologies has spent much more time and money on developing Hyperion than its other launch vehicles, mostly due to it being a foundational part of our future plans. This means that we can guarantee a higher chance of success. So, we will again turn to the community. What satellite do you need launched? What lander or orbiter do you want sent into the cosmos? On behalf of Orion Technologies, I would greatly appreciate any satellite/orbiter/lander, even rover submitted. We have left Hyperion's profile open for the first mission. Its maiden flight will use the shorter fairing and only 2 SRBs. Specifications will be given below. Hyperion will be launched out of Kennedy Space Center SLC-40 on its first flight. Anyways, any orbital slot/inclination is available(except for LEO), and any destination, ranging from the Moon, to Mars is also possible on Hyperion. Rideshare is an option as well if multiple companies are interested in this opportunity. In all, we would love to have your payload aboard HFT-1, and will provide this launch opportunity at no cost and do our best to ensure success.
Specifications
Hyperion’s payload capacity in the HFT-1 configuration to MEO, GTO, GEO, TLI, and TMI are as follows: 6,500lbs, 14,250lbs, 4,500lbs, 10,700lbs, and 5,600lbs. This mission will use the 45ft tall PLF, with the standard diameter of 18ft.
Whoever summits a payload will get to name the mission(HFT-1–>_), get their company’s logo on the PLF, and will be mentioned as a contributor to the Hyperion Program. We look forward to collaborating with you on this project! Enjoy!
Thank you to all of our collaborators and their effort in submitting payloads for HFT-1! We will no longer be accepting submissions for HFT-1, as we’ve accumulated 3 payloads now. Thanks again to our customers: @VonKaramanIndustries, @EverblueAerospace, and @NovaSpaceLLC.
@OrionTechnologies However My own base i am still Working on
@OrionTechnologies My own, Or My own modification to Ispace base
@NovaSpaceLLC, what launch complex/world do you use for the Lyra Project?
@OrionTechnologies https://www.simplerockets.com/c/x0R8bQ/NOAA-19
aw bruh
It is on my Crafts Lyra, and Iota, Same second stage, I Need something different
@EverblueAerospace, could not find your submission. En.wikipedia.org is not a JNO post.
@NovaSpaceLLC, great! Just put the link to it in the comments here and we’ll integrate it among the other payloads.
@EverblueAerospace, thank you! Just put the link to it in the comments here and we’ll integrate it among the other payloads. What destination is the payload meant for?
ok @OrionTechnologies I've submitted my payload
@VonKaramanIndustries, thank you! We’re behind schedule too, so no worries.
@OrionTechnologies will try. I hope i'll make it on time!
@VonKaramanIndustries, your most recent work has led us to believe that you are very skilled in making satellites/probes. If you are not busy already, would you be willing to take up this offer?
@NovaSpaceLLC, okay, likely can be deployed as a Rideshare.
@OrionTechnologies I have a payload a cube sat
@NovaSpaceLLC, here’s both an explanation of our future plans, and a place to discuss LV and Spacecraft designs: https://www.simplerockets.com/Forums/View/307528/Orion-Technologies-Future-Plans
@OrionTechnologies Where? MAKE your choice
@NovaSpaceLLC, okay, I’d be happy to talk LV and spacecraft designs, but on a different post
How ever we not that advanced
I have A Series of satellites Project VIPER For Communication and Navigation a series of 25
@OrionTechnologies sure
@NovaSpaceLLC, hey, and can you also notify me of when the Cert-1 lifts off, I want to watch that.
@NovaSpaceLLC, payload for HFT-1
What payload?
