The Mission Manifest Office (MMO), under Space Systems Command's (SSC) Assured Access to Space (AATS) program, acts as a "front door to launch" for government and civil payloads, maximizing rideshare opportunities on National Security Space (NSS) missions. The MMO designs mission sets and coordinates across the Department of Defense, NASA, and the intelligence community to integrate potential payloads, ensuring security, safety, and mission success while efficiently using government resources. They work with partners like Parsons Corporation to integrate satellite vehicles, particularly small satellites, onto medium- to large-class launch vehicles like SpaceX Falcon 9 and ULA Vulcan.
