Phase Four

Building the next generation space platforms. We're hiring! ⤵️

[Phase Four @PhaseFourPlasma]

Former NASA Administrator, Jim Bridenstine, joined the @payloadspace podcast to discuss a variety of topics. Jim is one of the strongest advocates for the commercial space industry and we are fortunate to have him on our BOD. Have a watch/listen!

“From my perspective, the goal is to have a single propulsion system that can do both high thrust and high ISP,” said former NASA head Jim Bridenstine, who is on Phase Four’s board."

@BeauJarvis3 "Maxwell's new modular chassis architecture enables us to introduce improved capabilities within the same form factor," said Phase Four CTO, Umair Siddiqui.

Happiness is packing up another Maxwell Block 2 engine that will soon be in a customer spacecraft on-orbit. An entirely new electric propulsion technology developed in California. And a new engine designed, built (and packaged!) in the USA.

"As our generation continues to develop and industrialize space, Phase Four’s game changing in-space mobility technologies will drive down costs, increase access, and maximize the utility and sustainability of Earth’s most valuable orbits."

"The space vehicles in development by @GoToImpulse address missions for all orbits and will benefit considerably by having the added capability of the Phase Four's Maxwell engine," said Tom Mueller, CEO of Impulse Space.
