SMF – Virginia

Satellite Manufacturing Facility in Dulles, Virginia

Orbital’s Dulles, Virginia Satellite Manufacturing Facility (SMF) is the largest in the United States east

of the Mississippi River. The 135,000 square foot SMF, one of the most modern in the world, can

accommodate all manufacturing, assembly and testing activities for multiple low-Earth orbit and

geosynchronous-orbit satellites and planetary spacecraft.

The SMF is designed to produce high-reliability commercial communications and broadcasting

satellites, Earth and space science spacecraft, national defense satellites and deep-space spacecraft.

To date, Orbital has developed, built and delivered nearly 150 small- and medium-sized satellites for

government and commercial customers. These satellites have amassed over 1,000 years of in-orbit

experience carrying out critical space science, technology demonstration, remote sensing and

communications missions.

Current Programs at the Virginia SMF Include:

• Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) for NASA

• Ionospheric Connection Explorer (ICON) satellite for NASA

• Cygnus service modules for cargo resupply to the International Space Station

• National Security Space Programs

• SKYM-1 (DirecTV)
