Launch Vehicles

DreamShip — the heavy-lift backbone of the orbital economy.

A fully reusable two-stage super-heavy launch vehicle designed to mass-deploy broadband satellites, lift gigawatt-scale orbital data centers, and support science missions across the solar system — and return to the launch site to refly within days.

DreamShip Stack

A 120-meter, fully reusable launch system.

The DreamShip stack pairs a Super Heavy booster with the DreamShip upper stage. Both stages return to the launch tower for inspection and re-flight, removing refurbishment as the dominant cost of space launch and enabling true airline-style operations.

Stage 1 · Super Heavy Booster

33 sea-level engines. Tower catch. Reflight in days.

The first stage uses a cluster of full-flow staged-combustion engines burning cryogenic methalox. After separation, it returns to the launch site and is caught mid-air by the launch tower's mechanical arms — eliminating landing legs and accelerating turnaround.

Stage 2 · DreamShip

A stainless-steel spacecraft that delivers orbital-class infrastructure on every flight.

The DreamShip upper stage carries the largest pressurized payload bay ever flown, with on-orbit refueling and full reusability. It can mass-deploy Dreamlink satellites, place gigawatt DreamCloud modules into service orbits, and continue on to lunar and deep-space science missions.

Mission Profiles

One vehicle. Every payload Earth needs in orbit.

DreamShip is engineered to fly the full range of missions — from broadband constellations and orbital data centers to science platforms and lunar logistics — on a single, fully reusable stack.
