The Aalto-1 satellite was scheduled to be on board of historical Falcon 9 SHERPA piggipack launch. However, due to launch anomalies in 2015 and 2016, the SHERPA launch was rescheduled several times. In the February 2017 it become clear that SHERPA launch is in grave danger to slip into far future.

Thanks to  persistent work by the launch broker company, Aalto-1 satellite was rescheduled to Indian PSLV launch in June 2017.
