Xodiac faithfully served the team since 2015, accomplishing 175 successful test flights over its ten-year service life. 🚀This Xodiac was the fifth generation in our line of XA-class Vertical Takeoff Vertical Landing (VTVL) vehicles.

Our Xodiac rocket soared around our Mojave test range as high as 500 m and as far as 300 m downrange, though it was capable of up to 1 km in either direction. It also consistently landed within 3 cm of its targeted landing site, about the width of a half-dollar coin.

Grab your slice of Moon Pi... 🍕🌙@Standupmaths is bringing the world's most famous never-ending number (pi) to the Moon! During our Griffin-1 lunar mission, our CubeRover-1 will be calculating pi right on the lunar surface. How? We'll let Matt explain the details:

Our FLIP test vehicle is ready for its Star Wars-style cinematic moment on the lunar surface! But it'll have to settle for some dramatic shots in our cleanroom labs. This test vehicle won’t head to the Moon, but it is providing tons of information that will allow our full

Lunar south pole, here we come. Flying aboard Astrobotic's Griffin Mission One, our FLIP rover will mature components and subsystems used on our FLEX rover. That includes full-sized batteries, tires, and software. Additionally, it'll bring customers of its own to the Moon!

Continuing our work for power infrastructure on the Moon with VSAT‑XL.💡 This vertical solar array is designed to be 30m+ high to power assets at the lunar south pole.🌙 The Moon doesn't have weather as we experience it on Earth, so these colossal arrays won't tip over.
