This Veterans Day, Celestis is proud to honor the veterans among our Memorial Spaceflight participants, each of whom dedicated their lives to service and sacrifice. We deeply respect the commitment these men and women made, and it is our privilege to fulfill their dreams of exploration in the most fitting way possible: by carrying their spirits to the stars. For many veterans, space embodies the boundless curiosity and courage that marked their time in service—qualities Celestis is honored to commemorate with every memorial spaceflight.

As a tribute to their service, Celestis offers a veterans discount, providing families with a unique way to honor their loved ones' legacies and celebrate lives defined by courage and commitment.
