#TerranR

Move over NASA SLS, SpaceX StarShip, and EU's Ariane 6 - where come the underdogs in mid-heavy lift space launch vehicles!

>> Relativity Space’s Terran R - heavy-lift, two-stage vehicle engineered to serve deep-space cargo and large constellation deployments.

>> Rocket Lab’s Neutron - medium-lift vehicle utilizing a proprietary lightweight carbon composite structure, powered by seven in-house liquid oxygen and methane engines

>> PLD Space’s Miura 5 - two-stage small-to-medium vehicle engineered to deliver ~ 1,000 kgs payload capacity direct to low-Earth orbit (LEO).

All three systems are expected to conduct integrated system test flights, full-scale hotfire verifications, and launch pad activations in 2H 2026. https://satnews.com/2026/07/20/commercial-launch-providers-advance-next-generation-heavy-and-medium-lift-vehicle-milestones-ahead-of-2026-debuts/ #Space #SpaceLaunch #CommercialLaunch #SpaceLaunchVehicle #Satellites #RelativitySpace #TerranR #RocketLab #Neutron #PLD #Miura5

@NASASpaceflight

Over the last month, Relativity has continued to inch closer to the debut of Terran R. Test articles for the two stages are being shipped for testing while flight hardware continues to be built in California.

#Relativity’s #TerranR thrust section testing 🔥 has now been completed. The 82 m tall Terran R, with a capability of launching — in a reusable ♻️ configuration — 23,500 kg to #LEO, is attempting to compete with other partially reusable vehicles like #Falcon9 https://www.nasaspaceflight.com/2025/10/relativity-update-oct25/

#TerranR would be a launch vehicle capable of launching 33.5 metric tons 💪 to #LEO in expendable mode—more than a fully upgraded #Vulcan Centaur—and 23.5 tons with a reusable ♻️ first stage https://arstechnica.com/space/2025/05/eric-schmidt-apparently-bought-relativity-space-to-put-data-centers-in-orbit
