Meet Gauss: Our new in-house designed and built electric propulsion system. Electric propulsion satellite thrusters have historically proven extremely difficult to produce in high volumes, causing supply chain fragility for national security and commercial constellation operators alike. We’ve already established the Gauss production line, designed to produce more than 200 thrusters per year, ensuring we can supply thrusters on demand in large quantities. Full details:

A spacecraft production complex configured specifically to meet the rigorous demands of national security space missions. That’s what we’ve established at our California headquarters to support the Space Development Agency’s PWSA. We were honored to host the SDA team recently at our optimized production line. This close collaboration on advanced production processes enables us to deliver national security capabilities with speed and reliability.

Small satellites, big impact 🛰️🛰️🛰️🛰️While the Artemis II astronauts are back on the ground, 4x CubeSats released from our own CSD satellite dispensers are carrying out their missions in high Earth orbit after hitching a ride inside NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s SLS rocket's Orion stage adapter. That's 100% mission success for our separation separations across every launch they've been on - and now as high as 40,000km above Earth.

Another multi-launch deal for Electron 🚀🚀🚀 We've added 3x new launches to the manifest for iQPS, Inc. (Institute for Q-shu Pioneers of Space, Inc.) to deploy their QPS-SAR satellites to space, bringing the total number of missions booked by iQPS to 15 and continuing Electron's role of primary launcher for their constellation. Our next launch for iQPS is scheduled for NET May.
