Firefly Aerospace Inc.

General Information
Business:

(Incorporated in Delaware)

We are a space and defense technology company with an established track record of success (in) developing space vehicles and providing comprehensive mission solutions to national security, U.S. government and commercial customers. We offer launch and spacecraft solutions.

Our Launch division has developed:

– Alpha, a U.S.-based orbital rocket (1,000-kilogram class) that has successfully completed four launches so far, and

-Eclipse, a reusable version of Alpha (capable of delivering 16,000-kilogram payloads) that we are developing with Northrop Grumman for a launch in early 2026. We expect that Eclipse will first launch from Wallops Island, Virginia, as early as 2026. and it will be able to support space station resupply, commercial spacecraft, critical national security missions, and scientific payloads for the domestic and international markets.

Our Spacecraft Solutions division has developed:

-Blue Ghost Lander, the only commercial vehicle to ever achieve a fully successful Moon landing and the first U.S.- based lander to successfully complete a lunar surface mission since NASA’s Apollo 17 in 1972. We have a flight-proven spacecraft that has operated in LEO, MEO, GEO and Cislunar orbits, and

-Elytra, our high-thrust spacecraft platform creating new categories for space domain awareness and warfighting, long-range communications relays, on-orbit edge processing and advanced space exploration. Elytra is capable of a wide range of spacecraft missions across multiple orbits, including satellite delivery, on-orbit transfers, hosted payloads, communications relay, and more–which positions us to help establish a dominant U.S. and allied national security position in space.

Elytra will support near-term Blue Ghost missions, highlighting both the space readiness and scalability of the underlying technology. Elytra will also support a responsive on-orbit mission for the Defense Innovation Unit (“DIU”) of the U.S. Department of Defense. Elytra will perform multiple Rendezvous Proximity Operations (“RPO”) and space domain awareness operations on demand. We also expect to offer Ocula, a lunar imaging service, through Elytra as early as 2026.
