== History ==
 +
'''Galax Launch Systems''' was a satellite manufacturing company, most well known for their [[SEU-193D Starcomm]] range of satellites. As the company name suggested, Galax Launch Systems had originally been located on [[Galax]], but the [[Word of Blake]] attack on Galax during the [[Jihad]] destroyed Galax Launch System's manufacturing facilities there.<ref name="TR:VArp126">''Technical Readout: Vehicle Annex Revised'', p. 126, "Satellite Support Systems"</ref>
  
==Overview==
+
In contrast to many companies located on Galax, Galax Launch Systems was able to relocate, opening production facilities on [[Delavan]]; the demand for new satellites to replace those destroyed by the Blakists was so high that production on Delavan was three times that of the original facilities on Galax, and by [[3084]] Galax Launch Systems was actually prospering in comparison to its pre-Jihad position.<ref name="TR:VArp126"/>
'''Galax Launch Systems and Satellites''' (GLSS) was a manufacturing company most well known for their [[SEU-193D Starcomm]] range of satellites.

GLSS had one subsidiary, [[Sorcerer Technologies]], a former component supplier which it acquired after the [[Fourth Succession War]]. All military production was done in their name, accounting for forty percent of GLSS' profits by [[3067]].<ref name=HB:HDp166/>
