Two orbital re-entries in 10 weeks? We got this. At 11:47am on May 14 2025 Southern Launch welcomed the Varda Space Industries W-3 capsule to the Koonibba Test Range. W-3 spent 61 days in orbit supported by the Rocket Lab Pioneer spacecraft.

Welcome home W-3!

How good does South Australia look from space! The Varda Space Industries W-3 capsule caught some beautiful images as it landed at the Koonibba Test Range. Watch the full re-entry on Youtube: youtube.com/watch?v=G0r5vL… (Bonus points to anyone who can identify any SA landmarks)

Happy to help Varda Space Industries!

Southern Launch proudly won two awards at the 2025 Australian Space Awards! Southern Launch won Launch Provider of the Year. Together with the Koonibba Community Aboriginal Corporation, we were also awarded the Indigenous Space Initiative of the Year for the SR75-1 launch.

The W-3 mission demonstrated Southern Launch's capability to support high cadence orbital re-entries. Working together with @Varda and Rocket Lab we were able to welcome W-3 capsule back to Earth just 10 weeks after the W-2 mission - watch to see how. youtu.be/RsIUFDUfLz0

It was great to welcome you to our HQ!
