Leaf Space Powers Early Orbit Phase for 28% of Transporter-14 Satellites

Milan, Italy—Jun 24, 2025—Leaf Space, a leading Ground Segment-as-a-Service provider, supported 20 satellites—28 percent of the total—during Early Orbit Phase operations for SpaceX’s Transporter-14 mission, which launched Monday.

The satellites have a diverse mix of applications in Earth observation, space manufacturing, in-orbit servicing, hyperspectral, IoT, and orbital last-mile transport. Our Service Delivery team connected most spacecraft within hours and will continue to ensure reliable links throughout the critical first 48 hours post-launch, working 24/7.

Our Service Delivery team is fully focused on supporting each satellite through the critical early phase,” said Cristina Zanchi, CEO of Leaf Space. We ensure every spacecraft is quickly connected to its respective mission control—so operators can focus on commissioning and performance, not troubleshooting ground links.”

For the first time, Leaf Space proudly reveals an official mission patch—to celebrate our global network of 36 antennas, API-driven scheduling, and unwavering commitment to reliable space communications.
