Voyager Space Selected as First Technical Support Team Member for Spaceport Nova Scotia

Voyager will provide comprehensive engineering, design and fabrication support to Maritime Launch

Maritime Launch Services is pleased to announce that the company has selected Voyager Space (Voyager) as the first Owner Authorized Representative (OAR) for the next phase of development, Spaceport Nova Scotia’s launch support infrastructure.

This strategic partnership between the two companies highlights the growing collaboration between Canada and the United States under the Technology Safeguard Agreement (TSA) recently announced on August 2nd, 2024. The TSA facilitates cross-border cooperation in space technology, including launching US launch vehicles and satellites from Canada and the development of the associated specialty support equipment.

Voyager, through its Exploration Segment, will provide comprehensive engineering, design and fabrication support to Maritime Launch, leveraging more than six decades of combined aerospace and defense technology experience. Voyager will bring its decades of commercial spaceflight engineering, manufacturing, and operations capabilities to provide engineering design and development and buildup of select portions of the launch site on behalf of Maritime Launch. Voyager will work alongside Maritime Launch to analyze launch client requirements and integrate them into the current site layout.

This collaboration is a testament to Voyager’s unique capability and past performance that supports spaceport facility and launch support system design and fabrication for a number of US launch clients and launch sites.

Jeffrey Manber, President of International and Space Stations at Voyager Space, expressed his enthusiasm for the partnership stating, “Canada is a long-standing partner of Voyager Space and we are thrilled to support Maritime Launch Services as they build a world-class spaceport in Nova Scotia. Our team’s extensive experience in building customer-focused commercial space systems positions us to deliver exceptional value to Maritime Launch.”

This partnership between Voyager and Maritime Launch Services is expected to accelerate the development of Canada’s first commercial spaceport, Spaceport Nova Scotia, positioning Canada as a key competitor in the fast-growing global space industry.

Stephen Matier, President and CEO, Maritime Launch stated, “Selecting Voyager Space as our first Owner Authorized Representative will ensure Spaceport Nova Scotia is well positioned to meet the design and development needs of our launch clients. Voyager’s vast experience and dedication to excellence make their team ideal partners for this project. The Technology Safeguard Agreement between Canada and the United States has been instrumental in allowing us to access the best expertise available, ensuring the success of this pioneering initiative.”
