Galactic Energy Ceres-1 launch vehicle

Ceres-1 is Galactic Energy's small orbital launch vehicle, combining three solid-propellant stages with a liquid upper stage. The manufacturer specifies 420 kg to low Earth orbit or 300 kg to Sun-synchronous orbit. Multiple satellite interfaces and modular deployment sequencing support rideshare missions, while active upper-stage disposal and land/sea launch adaptations broaden its operating flexibility.
