The flight ticket includes:

  • Verification and flight simulation test of an integrated experiment/ payload

  • Launch operations, flight of your payload to 260 km apogee

  • 6 minutes of high quality microgravity (<10-⁴ g)

  • Land recovery operations (2 hrs)

  • Accommodation at Esrange Space Center hotel, including meals, throughout the launch campaign, nominally 7 days

  • Access to: offices, meeting rooms, laboratories, preparation halls, recreation facilities

MASER has a total capacity of 300 kg experiment mass. Each experiment /payload module can weigh between 2 - 70 kg.

SSC’s launch facility Esrange Space Center is located 40 km from the town of Kiruna in the very north of Sweden, above the Arctic Circle (68°N, 21°E) and has access to a vast, unpopulated impact and recovery land area of 5200 km2. Kiruna has a highly developed infrastructure and a domestic airport providing daily flights to Stockholm. The climate is typically continental with cold winters and relatively warm summers.
