Our Mission

LAUNCHING THE FUTURE OF HUMANITY IN SPACE

Our long-term goal is to create humanity’s industrial base on Mars, paving the way for interplanetary life to fundamentally expand the possibilities of the human experience. The first step toward this vision starts here on Earth, by building the next great commercial launch company. 

Commercial and government customers are looking to launch satellites quickly and inexpensively, without waiting for a ride share slot on a large rocket launch to become available. We saw this market gap and set out to design a product to meet our customers’ needs; that’s where Terran R comes in. Developed for reuse, Terran R will deliver high-volume performance and reliability, with lower costs and shorter time to market. A testament to our unique approach, we have pre-sold launch service agreements with government and commercial customers totaling more than $1.8 billion.
