REACH NEW HEIGHTS

Propulsion

Our controllable solid propulsion technologies make solids perform like liquids. This technology allows for the in-flight modulation of thrust for solid fuel boosters, enabling a dramatic improvement in accuracy for both subsonic and hypersonic systems.

ACTIONABLE INSIGHTS

Earth and Space Visualization

Software and systems that provide space-to-Earth and space-to-space visualization in support of Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) applications. Our signal processes and geolocation technologies improve situational awareness and clarify operational landscapes.

Orbital Servicing & Space Sustainability

Our ElectroPermanent Magnet and robotics support systems enable safe management and servicing of on-orbit assets and space debris. This allows for secure refueling, repair, re-orbiting and decommissioning of satellites. This dual-use technology also supports critical robotic planetary exploration capabilities.
