Momentus Inc. (NASDAQ: MNTS) ("Momentus" or the "Company"), a
U.S. commercial space company that offers orbital transportation
and in-space infrastructure services, has signed a contract with
Lunasonde to deliver the Picacho CubeSat to orbit.
Lunasonde is a sub-surface imaging company with the goal of
making underground resources – like water and minerals – easier to
find. The Picacho CubeSat is a technology demonstration of
Lunasonde’s sensors. It will measure the power spectral density of
low-frequency radio signals in the ionosphere, which will help
inform designs for the company’s future satellites. Picacho will
fly on the Vigoride-7 spacecraft targeted to launch on the SpaceX
Transporter-9 mission in October 2023.
"With more affordable and reliable access to space comes more
impactful and dynamic uses of the space environment,” said Momentus
Chief Commercial Officer Chris Kinman. "We thank Lunasonde for
their trust and the Momentus team is dedicated to making the
orbital delivery of their payload a seamless part of their
mission.”
"We are excited to partner with Momentus on this mission,” said
Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Lunasonde Jeremiah Pate.
“The responsive and versatile nature of the Vigoride platform has
been a fantastic opportunity for our Picacho technology
demonstrator, which will pave the way for Lunasonde’s
groundbreaking insights into the Earth’s subsurface
environment.”
Momentus currently has three Vigoride Orbital Service Vehicles
in orbit. The Company has flights scheduled through the end of
2024. Email sales@momentus.space to discuss your orbital
