Arnhem Space Centre (ASC)

Located 12° South of the equator, the ASC is currently an active multi-user commercial spaceport in East Arnhem Land in the Northern Territory, Australia. With its proximity to the equator, launch companies and their payload customers can access all orbits and inclinations with increased operational freedom, lower economic costs and simplified mission design for reduced risk.

The spaceport’s facilities offer a single point of contact for all launch activities throughout a campaign, which streamlines the process of integrating a payload into a launch vehicle to reduce integration time and meet commercial goals.
