Today, we celebrate the dawn of U. S. orbital spaceflight! On this day in 1962, John Glenn became the first American to reach orbit in his Mercury spacecraft, Friendship 7, launched from Launch Complex 14 at Cape Canaveral. Sixty-three years later, we’re honored to reactivate

Getting good video coverage of Andromeda is proving to be a challenge with the new lower mounting position in the test stand. Call this "Crispy Cam v2.” Footage? Survived. Camera? Not so much. Better than v1, but more improvements to come...

Stoke is honored to be selected for the National Security Space Launch program, which includes a potential for $5.6B in contracts. We thank the United States Space Force for the opportunity, making Stoke one of only five companies chosen to serve critical National Security Launch

Open cycles typically wind up chasing efficiency during development, whereas closed cycles typically chase thrust. We have one of each, and it took some iteration, but both are looking great. Incredible work by incredible people 😍🥰🔥

This is a BIG deal. It is very hard just to turn these on. It is much much harder to dial them in to run at their limits. Major kudos to this absolute ELITE team!

The structures team isn’t just crushing it, it’s growing too. This structures test took a single stage 1 tank barrel to failure, validating our analysis methods and knock-down factors. Get in early for the opportunity of a lifetime! Senior Structures Engineer:

After 53,000+ seconds of hotfire testing and 43+ design iterations, we’ve locked in the final Andromeda thruster for flight. From a backyard shipping container a few years ago to powering Nova to space — let’s go! 🚀
