Time to go to space

[jerrio78]

Although most investors see this as a new start up company the grass roots of this venture started quite some time ago and the hurdles of studies and approvals were originally quite daunting. I picked up on the story as the company was thinking of going public, which only made good business sense since this would need a great deal of capital to prepare the necessary infrastructure to carry out rocket launches in a safe and economical manner. From the very start the phone started to ring at the new office of Maritime Launch as end users were hoping to align themselves with the timelines laid out in the business plan. We have all seen SpaceX launching rockets with payloads for a fee for a while now but what you don't see is the thousands of companies trying to get their satellite to space but can't hitch a ride or even get into the queue. yes I said thousands, at last count I found there were 65000 unfilled requests. That number will continue to grow while SpaceX tries to meet shareholder promises on Starlink.
