Maritime Launch Services and Isar Aerospace have agreed to extend the deadline to provide additional time to complete the statement of work and certain programmatic milestones contemplated under their previously-announced facilities usage agreement for Spaceport Nova Scotia. The deadline was extended from September 1, 2026, to September 15, 2026.

The parties continue to make strong progress through an intensive and productive planning process. The extension reflects the time required to complete this work.

“We are very pleased with the progress being made between both parties,” said Stephen Matier, President and CEO of Maritime Launch Services. “Our teams are working through the detailed planning required to advance this important program. The additional 14 days will allow us to complete that work and maintain the strong momentum we have established together.”

The extension does not change the other key terms of the facilities usage agreement announced on July 7, 2026. The parties remain focused on advancing the development of Isar Aerospace’s dedicated launch complex for its Spectrum launch vehicle at Spaceport Nova Scotia, with first orbital launches targeted for 2028.The agreement supports the development of sovereign orbital launch capability from Canada and expands Isar Aerospace’s launch capability into North America.

“We are making strong progress together with Maritime Launch Services as we advance the detailed planning for our launch operations at Spaceport Nova Scotia,” said Alexandre Dalloneau, Vice President Mission and Launch Operations, Isar Aerospace. “The work between our teams has been intensive and productive, and this additional time will allow us to finalize the remaining details as we move toward execution of the program.”
