LAUNCH
SOLUTIONS
Adaptive Launch Solutions (ALS) is a Small Disadvantaged Business (SDB) that provides pico, nano, micro, mini, and small satellites full launch integration services on Evolved Expendable Launch Vehicle (EELV), Medium Launch Vehicles (MLVs) and Small Launch Vehicles (SLVs). Beginning in 2010, ALS in cooperation with United Launch Alliance (ULA), Office of Space Launch (OSL), and NASA worked to enable science and technology missions gain access to available space through multi-manifesting small satellites on US Government Manifested launches. During that period, ALS began developing auxiliary satellite mission designs, mechanical and avionic systems, as well as engineering analysis and integration procedures for multi-manifest mission success.

Payload Support Unit (APSU)
The Auxiliary Payload Support Unit (APSU) capable of performing separation system power switching and sequencing independent of the Launch Vehicle.
EELV Deck and Standard Adapters (EDA) & (ESA)
ALS conducted the design engineering, analysis, production, and test phases to demonstrate the EDA & ESA adapter capability of supporting the A-Deck and Primary Satellite weighing up to 14,000 pounds, through Critical Design Review (CDR) with Aerospace Corp. conducting Independent Verification & Validation (IV&V).
Dual Manifest Adapters
ALS working with RUAG to create lightweight alternative solutions for 1.5M to 2.5M Dual Manifest Adapters.
A-Deck Support System
The A-Deck support platform is capable of supporting Small Satellites weighing up to 2,200 pounds and measuring up to 54 inches by 60 inches.
Aquila Configurations
The Aquila configurations support multi-manifest missions for one to 50 small satellites, dual satellites and Aquila/Primary Space Vehicle combinations on Atlas, Falcon and Antares.
FAR & Commercial Launch
ALS has developed launch integration, mission management and contracting models for US Government FAR and Commercial Launch Services Contracts.
AQUILA
Aquila is a constellation in the Northern Hemisphere which looks like an eagle with its wings spanning the Milky Way.
The eagle flies not only among the stars but also on the Great Seal of the United States.

CONTACT ALS
Adaptive Launch Solutions provides launch opportunities supporting Small Satellite Missions on any domestic Launch Vehicle using a variety of interface adapters.
ALS Mission Integration Management was developed to offer small satellites access to space for a fraction of the overall Launch Vehicle costs.
We look forward to discussing in detail how ALS can help support your launch requirements.
