Voyager
Voyager supplies domestically sourced, high‑performance propulsion and radiation‑hardened electronics for defense and space missions, offering the only U.S. black‑powder solid‑fuel motors and electric thrusters for precise missile, hypersonic, and satellite maneuvering. It also provides an integrated mission‑management platform—including the Bishop Airlock on the ISS—and a spectrum‑dominance intelligence suite that combines signal processing, AI analytics, and synthetic radar data, reducing supply‑chain risk and accelerating deployment across air, land, space, and cyber domains.

Problem
Defense and space customers face limited access to domestically sourced, high‑performance propulsion, radiation‑hardened electronics, and integrated mission services, creating supply‑chain risks and capability gaps for missiles, hypersonic weapons, satellite constellations, and human spaceflight.
Solution
Voyager provides a vertically integrated portfolio that spans raw energetic materials to fielded propulsion systems, including the sole U.S. source of black‑powder solid‑fuel motors for precise missile and hypersonic thrust control. It also delivers flight‑proven, radiation‑hardened guidance, navigation, control, and communications hardware for high‑assurance space missions, as well as electric thrusters for satellite maneuverability. Complementary services include end‑to‑end mission management—payload integration, crew training, ISS airlock access, and on‑orbit operations—plus spectrum‑dominance intelligence tools that fuse signal processing, AI analytics, and synthetic radar data for real‑time situational awareness. By combining these capabilities, Voyager reduces reliance on foreign suppliers, shortens development cycles, and enables customers to launch, operate, and protect assets across air, land, space, and cyber domains.
Target Audience
Primary customers are U.S. defense agencies, missile and hypersonic program contractors, satellite operators, and commercial space companies requiring propulsion, hardened electronics, and comprehensive mission‑management services.
