The short version: Every mission delivers the Mission Package — real environmental characterization, your payload telemetry, high-resolution photography and video at altitude, an engineering report structured for TRL assessment, a 10-slide executive presentation, a baseline performance dataset, and your hardware returned within 72 hours of landing. The complete package follows the flight within 4–5 weeks.
Eight Deliverables, Every Mission
Real environmental characterization
Pressure, thermal, RF, and radiation data across the full flight profile. The evidence that your hardware saw a real relevant environment.
Your payload's telemetry
Your data, time-correlated to the flight environment so you can see exactly what your hardware did and when.
High-resolution photography
Your hardware at altitude, with Earth curvature. Program-review and capabilities-brief ready.
Mission video reel
Launch through recovery. Usable on sales calls and in stakeholder updates.
Engineering report
Structured for TRL assessment — the document your team builds its TRL packet from.
10-slide executive presentation
Ready for portfolio review and stakeholder updates, so your champion doesn't have to build it.
Baseline performance dataset
A reference for comparing future flights of the same or revised hardware.
Hardware returned within 72 hours
Recovered and back to you fast, so you can inspect, iterate, and re-fly.
Your Data Is Yours. Your Package Is Yours to Use.
You own the data your payload generates — sensor readings, experiment results, payload-specific measurements, and any imagery captured by your own payload. StratoStar owns the platform and environmental data, the flight video and photo media collected on StratoStar's cameras, and StratoStar's own analysis and reports.
Everything included in your Flight Data Package is yours to use — in publications, presentations, grant proposals, and customer briefings — provided you credit StratoStar when you use StratoStar-provided data or media. Both parties keep the other's proprietary information confidential. (Full terms in your signed Service Agreement, which controls.)
From Landing to Full Package
- Within 72 hours of landing — your hardware is recovered and returned, with a preliminary results summary.
- Within 4–5 weeks — the complete Mission Package is delivered: full data archive, engineering report, executive presentation, and baseline dataset.
One Package. Several Jobs.
Program managers
The engineering report and executive slides drop straight into a program review or milestone gate.
Component manufacturers
The environmental data and report become a flight-heritage credential attached to datasheets and customer proposals.
Defense / SBIR teams
The report supports a relevant-environment TRL demonstration; the photography and video become sales collateral for Army, government, and industry customers.
Research PIs
The flight measurements and characterization support publication and the next proposal.
You Analyze. We Handle Everything Else.
Your engineers analyze the data and write the TRL packet — the part only your team can do. StratoStar handles integration, FAA coordination, launch operations, tracking, recovery, and assembling the full package. You stay focused on the hardware.
