Lift-off for More Accessible Space Exploration
summary
Company claims an electric propulsion for small satellites that is modular and scalable, with three propulsion systems slated to fly early next year. Market claim: launches scale fast—projected tens of thousands satellites per year—driving lower launch cost and mass manufacturing. Concrete problems addressed: lack of onboard maneuvering, collision risk from high‑speed debris, and cloud-covered imaging solved by synthetic aperture radar. Team splits work between product delivery and performance improvement.
