Ursa Major To Deliver Chemical Propulsion Capability For Tactical Satellite Bus Systems

(MENAFN- PR Newswire) Building upon successful flights for hypersonic and defense applications in 2024, Ursa Major is leveraging its expertise in scaling manufacturing of propulsion systems to provide unfettered access to space. The recent growth in the satellite industry has demonstrated an increased demand for advanced propulsion systems that provide efficient mobility for maneuverability, collision avoidance, and timely deorbiting. A pillar to responsive space domain is a resilient supply chain that can meet the necessary mission lead times. Ursa Major is responding to this need with an off-the-shelf and scalable manufacturing approach to enable rapid delivery of mission critical capabilities.

"This award demonstrates the engineering rigor in propulsion systems to yield a new generation of highly maneuverable buses at significantly faster lead times than currently fielded systems," said Ursa Major CEO Dan Jablonsky.

The development and production work of these in-space propulsion systems will take place at Ursa Major's design, test, and production facility in Berthoud, Colorado and apply advanced digital manufacturing processes alongside vertical integration of key technologies to enable rapid deployment.
