I am incredibly excited and proud to be able share that @K2SpaceCo is coming out of stealth, and I can talk a little about what we have been working on! The people are everything. I am happy to say that we have a phenomenal team at K2 Space, and we are growing and building!
Since its the perfect time to announce we're coming out of stealth, hello world! We're K2 Space - We're building large satellites for a post-Starship future. Learn a bit more about what we're working here:

A video update with Shawn Dahl, SWPC Service Coordinator, on CME progression & how we analyze & interpret geomagnetic storm activity and solar wind environment; with info about what to look for tonight regarding aurora chances. Stay space weather aware at spaceweather.gov
So proud of this!
Three years ago, @KaranKunjur and @NeelKunjur pitched me on the idea of building bigger. Today, @k2spaceco has a new $3B valuation (with a $250M Series C round), a business that’s humming (with over $500M in contracts this year), a huge factory where 80% of each satellite is…
I am so proud of all that we have accomplished at @K2SpaceCo in the past 3+ years. We are building a world class team plus great satellites for important customers and missions. The below news reaffirms we are heading in a great direction. Let's go!
Three years ago, K2 Space was founded on a contrarian bet: Build Bigger. Today, we're excited to announce that K2 Space has raised $250M at a $3B valuation, led by @Redpoint, with participation from @TRowePrice, Hedosophia, @AltimeterCap, @lightspeedvp, Alpine Space Ventures,…
I am super excited to be a part of this team at @K2SpaceCo as we build for this mission. It is a unique mission that will highlight the versatility of our satellite bus platform. Onwards and upwards!
One launch, three satellites, three orbits. We’re excited to announce our 2027 Trinity mission, which will demonstrate K2 Space’s capability to proliferate satellites across LEO, MEO, and GTO orbits from a single launch. The higher orbits have historically been the hardest…
We started @K2SpaceCo to fundamentally disrupt legacy telecommunication systems by unlocking the ability to proliferate MEO. @SES_Satellites is one of the largest satellite operators in the world and currently operates the largest MEO fleet. Together we’re building the most…
Incredibly exciting times ahead as we build in MEO.
We're proud to announce our strategic partnership with @SES_Satellites on the development of their future Medium Earth Orbit (MEO) network. Read the full press release here: businesswire.com/news/home/2025… At K2 Space, we're re-thinking how advanced space networks are developed.…
It does not get much cooler than this, in-space propulsion fans!
We've completed our first in-space demo of key components and first ground hotfire of our in-house 20kW Hall-effect thruster. These milestone achievements significantly de-risk our 2026 Gravitas mission to Medium Earth Orbit (MEO). payloadspace.com/k2-hotfire-pav…
I see a lot of people saying America is back. I’d like to see more of us get off the bus and walk. Most people don’t realize the International Space Station was once killed in Congress — back when it was still called Space Station Freedom. It was later revived by President…
Heard this sonic boom loud and clear tonight. So cool.
It is very fun to be an engineer at @K2SpaceCo.
What’s that? Oh just the hall thruster we built (highest power to ever fly) firing in a massive vacuum chamber we built (highest flow rate EP test facility in the world), as seen from my desk. Hard to beat being an engineer these days, especially if you’re at @K2SpaceCo.
This new round came after a couple years of really hard work. I could not be prouder of this team. If you are a potential customer, collaborator, or employee, let me tell you a story...
Our CEO @KaranKunjur broke the news this morning about our $110M Series B funding round on @BloombergTV! The funding round, co-led by @lightspeedvp and Altimeter, includes participation from existing investors Alpine Space Ventures, @firstround, and others. More details here:…

Big congratulations to the @blueorigin team on the success of New Glenn. Making it to orbit on your first launch- What an achievement!
I am so excited to be a part of this phenomenal team.
We started this year @K2SpaceCo as a team of 25 people, building hardware for our first component mission, working out of our 15k sq ft factory. We ended this year as a team of 89 people, building hardware for our first full satellite mission (“Gravitas”), moving into our 181k…
This is the good stuff. I would love if we did even one of these projects!
Every morning this week I've been popping awake ~4-5am and I lie in bed unable to fall back asleep. Why? I find myself thinking about “clean sheet” NASA Goals/Missions. What would I have NASA do if we just started from scratch? What can be, unburdened by what has been?😉🧵
Now, about that Hubble Repair mission... 😉
LANDOOOOOOOO!
Yes. Yes, I would.
Adrian Newey says he would "advocate" #F1 introducing much smaller and lighter cars 🤏 ⚖️ Would you like to see a return to the more agile and elegant machines of the early 00s? 🤔
Huge congrats to @endeffector and the whole Astrolab team, can’t wait to drive one of these around on the 🌖
NASA has awarded Astrolab and its partners a contract worth up to $1.9 billion to advance the development of the Lunar Terrain Vehicle which will help Artemis astronauts explore more of the Moon’s surface. Read the full announcement: businesswire.com/news/home/2024…
