Galaxia to Build Autonomous Flight Safety System for Nova Scotia Spaceport

Halifax – October 07, 2026 -- Galaxia and Maritime Launch Services Inc. (CBOE: MAXQ, OTCQB: MAXQF) have agreed that Galaxia will develop and supply an Autonomous Flight Safety System (AFSS) for launch operations at Spaceport Nova Scotia, marking a step toward Canadian sovereign launch capability.

Galaxia's AFSS replaces ground-based range safety with onboard vehicle decision-making

The system will process launch vehicle sensor data in real time onboard the rocket to determine whether termination criteria have been met, reducing dependence on traditional ground-based range safety infrastructure. The design incorporates redundant radiation-hardened controllers, deterministic real-time signal processing, multi-sensor data fusion for vehicle health monitoring, and a space-grade independent power system intended to operate under mission-critical conditions.
