Today marks the beginning of a new era.
Introducing: Cowboy Space Corporation.
We are building orbital infrastructure for the AI era: a fully integrated system of rockets and satellites designed to deliver high-performance compute and optical data transmission directly from Low Earth Orbit.
Meet David, our Director of Satellite Engineering.
Here he discusses his career journey and the roadmap for Cowboy Space.

How can a rocket body solve the biggest problem for orbital data centers?
@CowboySpaceCorp CEO @BaijuBhatt explains:
"Our approach is actually to use the mass and the volume of the upper stage of the rocket as a functional part of the data center itself. So using the actual vehicle itself as a part of the cooling mechanism is the novel thing that we're doing."
We used to be Aetherflux. Now we're Cowboy Space.
One thing hasn't changed: Mission 1, power beaming from orbit to the ground.
It's in motion even as we build out rockets and data centers in orbit. Stay tuned.
250 years. Standing on the foundation of the builders before us.
Now it's time to innovate on new frontiers. From the Wild West to Outer Orbit. ๐บ๐ธ
Andrew's engineering background is absolutely cracked.
He joined us back when we were just a few people standing around a laptop at Aetherflux.
Now we've evolved into Cowboy Space.
Watch him discuss this journey.
Our CEO @BaijuBhatt recently sat down with @RandallLane for the Forbes Innovator event.
For the TL;DR on how we're going to power humanity from space, look no further.
