A spacecraft for deploying objects into selected multiple flight paths. The spacecraft has two separable, individually powered deployment vehicles each carrying a number of the objects. During launch, the two vehicles are mated, in interfitting relation, into a compact unitary spacecraft which is placed into a predetermined initial flight path. The two deployment vehicles are then separated and powered across the selected flight paths of the objects to be deployed. Upon arrival of each vehicle at a selected flight path, the vehicle is momentarily arrested and positioned in a proper deployment attitude and an object is deployed along the path. |
