In-space manufacturing was waiting for the right infrastructure to flourish.Astronauts proved the science. But human spaceflight was built for research, not factories.BentoBox removes complexity. Starfall and Starship bring scale.Together, they can unleash the revolution!
@SpaceCu announced this week that it secured a dedicated mission on @SpaceX's new Starfall reentry vehicle, expected to launch on Starship in 2028.
CEO @nicolas_gaume told Payload that the company has already sold 1/3 of the vehicle’s 1,000-kg capacity—and expects to have customers locked in for half of the vehicle by the end of the year.
As alternatives to the retiring ISS begin to come online, Space Cargo is positioning itself to capitalize on as much of newfound supply as possible.
Payload reporter @Douglas__Gorman spoke exclusively with Gaume about the company's future missions and why Starfall stood out among the pack of reentry vehicles. ⬇️

“Microgravity is a €1B market today. Europe has the opportunity to make it a €10B one — and to lead it.”
This was the message shared by our Strategy & Alliances lead, Anilkumar Dave, during his panel at the #EuropeanSpaceConference in Brussels this week. 🇪🇺

This partnership reinforces our role in building Europe’s commercial LEO ecosystem, one where microgravity research is repeatable and space becomes a natural extension of the continent’s industrial value chain.
We are grateful to @esa for their trust in making this possible.
