Quantum Space, a company building the next generation of advanced maneuverable spacecraft for defense and commercial space operations, today...
Quantum Space has been selected by the U.S. Space Force for an Andromeda IDIQ Contract award, accelerating the development of next-generation space domain awareness capabilities.
The award positions Ranger to characterize lunar water resources for sustainable presence on the Moon, advancing a whole-of- government approach to using cislunar space as a strategic and scientific resource.
The acquisition brings Phase Four's multi-mode propulsion technology into Ranger's stack, pairing high-thrust and high-efficiency modes in a single thruster so the spacecraft can sprint, dwell, and reposition on demand.
The extension funds the run to Ranger Prime's maiden flight and the buildout of mission-configurable variants for the Department of War, Space Force, and DARPA programs already on contract.
A perspective on the largest national security space investment in a generation, and the case for distributing maneuverable spacecraft across every orbit above LEO rather than concentrating capability in a single layer.
Matlock joins as Senior Vice President, National Security Space, bringing four decades of Department of Defense leadership and recognized missile defense expertise to Quantum's national security space portfolio.
Air dominance was won through systems of control: maneuverable fighters, AWACS, aerial refueling, integrated logistics. Space superiority will be won the same way. A foundational essay on the case for the maneuver-first platform.
A joint-venture award from the United States Space Force, expanding Quantum's portfolio of national security space programs.
An on-orbit servicing offering designed to add three to five years of operational service to existing satellites in geostationary orbit.
Institutional backing for Quantum's positioning in the maneuverable spacecraft category and the broader orbital economy.
An award from the Space Development Agency for in-space servicing operations, foundational to the Ranger platform's national security use cases.
