  • Isar Aerospace
  • Maiaspace
  • Orbital Express Launch
  • PLD Space
  • Rocket Factory Augsburg

    I’m glad that a bunch of startups made the cut. It makes sense that Maiaspace got in, as an arm of Ariane, but they’re probably less strapped for cash. And thank goodness at least two have reusable concepts, PLD and Maia.
