The Third Planet Orbital
Deployer (TPOD) has been selected for use
on the Exotopic "Give Me Some Space!" mission scheduled for launch in Q1 2026. The
TPOD is designed to provide accommodation for higher capability CubeSats, maximising
volume utilisation versus overall mass. The design and supply chain achieves faster
delivery, and ongoing engineering activities will allow Third Planet
Orbital
to operate a 6U/12U/16U exchange programme to give customers responsive
schedule flexibility.
The fast and repeatable satellite integration process of the TPOD-12XL is being displayed at the inaugural SmallSat Europe exhibition in Amsterdam on the 27th and 28th May 2025 (Booth 1035).
