A method for arranging a plurality of spacecraft comprises the following steps: arranging a first layer of spacecraft around a dispenser; fixing the spacecraft of the first layer to the dispenser using mechanical interfaces extending in a radial direction; arranging a second layer of spacecraft around the first layer and the dispenser, the spacecraft of the second layer being arranged that they extend beyond, in a longitudinal direction of the fairing, the spacecraft of the first layer which are interposed between them and the dispenser; fixing the spacecraft of the second layer to the dispenser using mechanical interfaces extending in a radial direction over a distance greater than that of the mechanical interfaces of the first layer; and arranging the assembly thus obtained, under the fairing of a launcher. Assembly of spacecraft that can be obtained by the method and a dispenser suited to the assembly is provided.
