Moog developed the Evolved Secondary Payload Adapter (ESPA) to reduce launch costs for primary missions, while enabling additional payload. The ESPA can be stacked on top of itself multiple times, enabling the launching of dozens of auxiliary payloads at once. ESPA mounts to the standard NSSL (formerly EELV) interface bolt pattern (Atlas V, Falcon 9, Delta IV, OmegA, Vulcan, New Glenn) and is a drop-in component in the launch stack. (Waiting on Paul Zamprelli, to reply with a list of missions this was on.)

Our SoftRide systems have been providing custom vibration isolation solutions for components and whole spacecraft for more than 20 years. Now joining that legacy of proven performance is the SoftRide Family, a collection of “ready for flight” off-the-shelf isolators designed for emerging space markets. Specifically sized to be compatible with smaller interfaces (15” ports or larger) and the higher loads of a multi-manifest or small launch vehicle environment.  SoftRide is a qualified system that can be integrated quickly into your analysis and physical stacks with minimum effort and maximum positive impact.

The small new satellite Solar Array Drive Assembly (SADA) was designed to meet the needs of the rapidly growing small satellite market. It is a lightweight and compact power solution for positioning solar array panels. It is comprised of modular components, allowing modifications to meet mission-specific requirements, and reducing lead times. The world-class mechanisms team offers a variety of solar array drives, propulsion positioning gimbals, electric propulsion gimbals, antenna positioner mechanisms, docking and release mechanisms, and specialty payload positioners.
