Bandwagon-3 – SpaceX SmallSat Rideshare Mission
Affordable Access to Space for Small Satellite Operators
Bandwagon-3 is a dedicated rideshare mission launched by SpaceX as part of its SmallSat Rideshare Program. Designed to serve small satellite operators, this mission utilizes a Falcon 9 rocket to deliver ESPA-class payloads to mid-inclination orbits on a regularly scheduled basis.
With launch costs starting at $300,000 for up to 50 kg, Bandwagon-3 offers a cost-effective and reliable solution for organizations looking to deploy small satellites without the need for a dedicated launch vehicle.
