Technology is disclosed herein for a spacecraft launch restraint and dispensing structure (100). The dispensing structure (100) has a number of trusses (110) and a central structure (104). When the trusses (110) are in a support position, each spacecraft may be supported at one point by the central structure (104) and at two points by one or more of the trusses. Therefore, each spacecraft may be supported at three points, thereby providing a stable support for each spacecraft. The spacecrafts do not touch each other and do not bear the weight of other spacecrafts. In a deployment position, the trusses (110) extend away from the satellites and do not support the satellites; however, the satellites initially remain connected to the central structure (104). In the deployment position, the trusses (110) are out of an ejection path such that the satellites can be ejected in a desired sequence from the central structure (104).
