UP Aerospace conducted its first launch on 25 September 2006 from Spaceport America in Upham, New Mexico. Since then, numerous other launches, mostly successful, have been conducted from the company's launch complex at Spaceport America. All launches are sub-orbital so that they do not complete one orbital revolution.
