On March 14, 2025, Exolaunch successfully deployed 27 satellites onboard SpaceX's Transporter-13 rideshare mission. Liftoff occurred from Vandenberg Space Force Base, California, USA. This mission marks Exolaunch's 34th mission overall and a significant milestone — surpassing 500 satellites deployed to date.

Transporter-13 also marked the successful inaugural flight of Exolaunch's Quadro separation system, a brand new four-point microsatellite separation system designed for satellites weighing 200 to 800+ kilograms, offering synchronized release and minimized tip-off rates. Alongside Quadro, Exolaunch deployed satellites using its flight-proven CarboNIX separation rings (up to 24” satellite sizes) and EXOpod Nova deployers.

Customers on Transporter-13 span 14 countries, and their spacecraft support critical applications including Earth observation, communications, and scientific research. Exolaunch provided a full suite of mission services, from testing and integration to in-orbit deployment.

With Transporter-13, Exolaunch continues its role as a trusted launch integrator for SpaceX rideshare missions, contributing to every Transporter mission to date, and reinforcing its leadership in reliable, precision deployment services.
