The invention relates to a method of releasing artificial satellites into Earth's orbit comprising providing an orbital transport spacecraft (1) able to move at orbital height and comprising a cargo area (12a), hooking a plurality of satellites (12) in said cargo area (12a), housing said orbital transport spacecraft in a space launcher (100) configured to reach an orbital height, releasing said orbital transport spacecraft (1) at orbital height, when said space launcher (100) reaches orbital height, by imparting a separation thrust to said orbital transport spacecraft (1), releasing satellites (12) in sequence from the cargo area (12a). The release of each satellite (12) from the cargo area (12a) occurs in a respective predetermined direction and upon the orbital transport spacecraft (1) has reached a respective predetermined position.
