The payload is designed to operate flexibly across dynamic orbits over a year-long mission profile.\r\n\r\nSeveral internal Blue Origin payloads will also be hosted.","associated_norad_ids":[],"pad":{"id":121,"name":"Launch Complex 36A","latitude":28.4705556,"longitude":-80.542194,"country":"USA","operator":"Cape Canaveral SFS, FL, USA","url":"https://ll.thespacedevs.com/2.2.0/pad/121/"},"updated_at":"2026-11-05T02:00:22.969433Z"}}
