Supporting a rideshare manifest with a mix of small and large satellites, TriSept Corporation has selected Relativity Space for a full mission aboard Relativity’s Terran 1, the world’s first entirely 3D printed rocket.

Under the signed agreement, TriSept has secured a full mission on Terran 1 as early as 2022. The launch will take place from one of Relativity’s launch sites at Cape Canaveral in Florida or Vandenberg Air Force Base in California.
TriSept, the first company to 3D print an entire rocket and build the largest metal 3D printers in the world, is disrupting aerospace with the first and only aerospace factory to integrate 3D printing, artificial intelligence, and autonomous robotics, allowing rockets to be built in less than 60 days, with 100x fewer parts and a radically simplified supply chain.
Relativity will demonstrate its advantage to offer both government and commercial customers affordable access to space in LEO and beyond. TriSept is a long-time, go-to launch integration provider in the US and UK space markets, and has enabled the launch of more than 200 satellites, including a broad range of small rideshare spacecraft into LEO, MEO and GEO orbits.
TriSept is already in discussions with several large and small satellite developers with missions to launch within the timeframe covered under the launch services agreement with Relativity.
Relativity has recently achieved significant technical, commercial, infrastructure, and team momentum. This agreement with TriSept is the seventh publicly announced launch customer for Relativity, following partnership announcements with both commercial and government industry leaders such as Lockheed Martin, Iridium, and NASA, to name a few.
“We are excited to partner with TriSept, a seasoned leader in providing innovative solutions for its customers in mission management, rideshare brokerage, and launch integration,” said Tim Ellis, Co-Founder and CEO of Relativity Space. “At Relativity, we are revolutionizing access to space through our disruptive approach to manufacturing and are fortunate to work with companies like TriSept that reflect our forward-thinking mission and relentless pursuit to build humanity’s multi-planetary future.”
“Relativity is building something our team is very excited about and their Terran 1 rocket architecture is designed to accommodate the evolving needs of our government and commercial customers,” said Rob Spicer, TriSept CEO. “Because Terran 1 is a larger launch vehicle with more performance to LEO, it offers our prime and rideshare customers with bigger satellites a low-cost alternative for launch.”
