Florida-based launch company Vaya Space is working towards the first launch of its Dauntless rocket, a two-stage launch vehicle designed and assembled on Florida's Space Coast.
On Monday, July 15, 2024, they received their first pathfinding liquid oxygen tank shell, which will be used in their test campaign. The delivery came from California-based Scorpius Space Launch Company, which also manufactured the LOX tank used on Intuitive Machines' Nova-C lander, Odysseus.
Spaceflight Now Reporter Will Robinson-Smith got an exclusive tour of the Vaya Space facilities in Cocoa and their test stand to learn more about the production of the rocket and the path to launch at Space Launch Complex 13 (SLC-13) at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, the location also known as Landing Zone 1 where SpaceX currently lands some of its Falcon 9 first stage boosters.
