APEX / ORBITAL
Precision-engineered launch vehicles for commercial, scientific, and national security payloads. From Cape Canaveral to low-Earth orbit — on schedule, every time.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
WE DON'T JUST LAUNCH ROCKETS. WE ARCHITECT HUMANITY'S NEXT CHAPTER.
Founded in 2018 by a team of SpaceX and Boeing veterans, Apex Orbital was built on a single conviction: the future belongs to those who can get there reliably. Not occasionally. Not when conditions align. Every single time.
Our launch vehicles combine 1960s structural precision with 2020s software intelligence. The result is a fleet of spacecraft that don't just reach orbit — they redefine what a launch provider can be.

WHAT WE DO
LAUNCH SERVICES
COMMERCIAL LAUNCH
Dedicated & Rideshare
From constellation deployment to one-off scientific payloads, our commercial launch programme offers unmatched schedule certainty. Fixed-price contracts, transparent milestones, and a 47-launch track record.
GOVERNMENT & DEFENSE
Classified & Open
ITAR-compliant facilities, US government launch authority, and a dedicated classified launch cadence. We work with NRO, DOD, and allied national space agencies on time-critical missions.
RIDESHARE PROGRAMME
Multi-Manifest Orbits
Book a slot on any Apex Nova or Apex Scout mission for as little as $6,200/kg. Our manifest board is updated monthly. Affordable access to orbit for smallsat builders worldwide.
MISSION ENGINEERING
Full-Service Integration
Our mission engineering team handles trajectory design, payload integration, LEOP, and on-orbit commissioning support. End-to-end mission assurance from PDR through launch + 30 days.
THE APEX MANIFESTO
THE UNIVERSE IS NOT A DESTINATION. IT IS AN OBLIGATION.
We build our vehicles as if civilisation depends on them. Because it does. Every kilogram we place in orbit represents a wager on human curiosity, a bet that the next century belongs to those brave enough to leave the surface behind.
CLIENT VOICES
TRUSTED BY THE WORLD'S BEST
Apex delivered our 24-satellite constellation on a single Titan manifest — on schedule, zero anomalies. I've worked with every major launch provider. None match this level of operational discipline.
DR. CLAIRE HOLDEN
CTO · Stellarlink Communications
Our lunar precursor mission had a 72-hour launch window. Apex hit the first slot. The trajectory injection was within 0.003° of nominal. This kind of precision is what the deep-space era demands.
PROF. ALEJANDRO RUIZ
Mission Director · European Science Foundation
The rideshare manifest is how startups get to orbit. Apex Scout gives us a fixed price, a real date, and an engineering team that actually picks up the phone. The industry needed this.
