Tundra is a portable orbital launch vehicle, powered by NordSpace’s Hadfield and Garneau engines. Capable of lifting payloads up to 500 kg to low Earth orbit (LEO), this capacity allows for a responsive launch system to be set up anywhere it is required including on land or at sea. Tundra costs approximately $5,000 / kg to LEO, among the lowest in the world.
Tundra will be the first ever rocket compatible with carbon neutral e-fuels (sustainable aviation fuels), and is optimized for extremely low acoustic impact and emissions. A full year of operations would result in less fuel usage than a single trans-Atlantic commercial flight. Tundra's first stage is designed for an ocean recovery and refurbishment.
NordSpace's StarGate architecture allows for the entire Tundra launch system to fit and be transported in only a few standard sea containers. The incredible portability, storability, and rapid launch capability of Tundra means launching from anywhere on Earth to anywhere in space is truly a possibility.
