What they build

The product

Autonomous orbital capsules (W-series) that manufacture high-value pharmaceuticals in microgravity, then reenter on hypersonic trajectories. The reentry vehicle doubles as a hypersonic test platform for DoD.

Why it matters

The thesis

First company turning orbit into a production floor, not a research lab. Dual-use: commercial crystallization of biologics on the way up, hypersonic flight-test data on the way down — rebuilding a domestic hypersonic test capacity the US lost decades ago.
