In recent years, there has been an emergence of private sector players in the space launch service industry, owing to growing development in the space launch service sector by these private companies. The entry of these companies has led to rapid advancements in technology, including the development of reusable rockets and more efficient propulsion systems.

For instance, SpaceX pioneered the concept of reusable launch vehicles with its Falcon 9 and Starship programs, which have drastically reduced the cost of space launch and making frequent launches feasible. As private companies offer lower costs of operation, they receive higher order rates for space launch services from major government agencies around the world. For instance, in October 2024, SpaceX announced it has received new contracts worth $733.5 million for national security space missions. According to the agreement, SpaceX has received contracts for nine launches under the National Security Space Launch Phase 3 Lane 1 program. The Space Development Agency will be utilizing SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket to launch small satellites into a low-earth orbit constellation, to install a network of satellites specifically designated to enhance military communications and intelligence capabilities. Thus, the emergence of private players in recent years is anticipated to positively help in the growth of space launch service industry.
