Long Duration Propulsive ESPA (LDPE)

Abstract

The LDPE platform provides a standard rideshare service for a wide variety of secondary payload options. It features 6 ports and accommodates ten to twelve fixed and/or separable prototype payloads. After the forward payload separates, the LDPE platform separates and propels to mission orbit, typically GEO, approximately 22,000 miles above the earth. The LDPE platform can maneuver to allow prototype/experimental payloads to be dropped off at different locations or remain hosted to the ring based on mission requirements.
