The Arizona-based aerospace company plans to produce enough rockets to launch 100 missions a year.





We present to your attention a translation of an article by Neil Patel that appeared in the MIT Technology Review on May 26, 2021. The focus is on the Arizona space dream. Former associate of Elon Musk proposes to revise the existing economic models of launches and promises a new round of competition in orbit.
