Meteor SM

Overview

Destination: Low Earth Orbit
Mission: Planetary Science

Low Earth Orbit Launch Area 0 A Wallops Flight Facility, Virginia, USA

METEOR (Multiple Experiment Transport to Earth Orbit & Return), formerly COMET (Commercial Experiment Transporter), was a NASA program to develop a commercially available experiment transporter for microgravity experiments over longer periods.

Conestoga 1620

Family:
Configuration: 1620

The Conestoga was a launch vehicle design funded by Space Services Inc. of America (SSIA) of Houston, Texas. Conestoga originally consisted of surplus LGM-30 Minuteman stages with additional strap-on boosters, as required for larger payloads. It was the world's first privately funded commercial rocket, but was launched only three times (once as a modified design) before the program was shut down.
