\"Voyager<\/p>\n

Voyager Technologies signed an agreement to acquire Astrobotic Technology, the Pittsburgh-based pioneer of commercial lunar delivery, lunar power and reusable rockets. Astrobotic is a key strategic acquisition in the company\u2019s lunar initiative road map: the hardware and operational capability to land on the lunar surface, sustain life and execute critical missions.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are building the infrastructure foundation that will make America\u2019s permanent presence on the Moon a reality,\u201d<\/em> said Dylan Taylor, Chairman & CEO, Voyager.<\/strong><\/em> \u201cAchieving that vision requires robust operational systems that match the resilience necessary for critical, repeatable missions. With <\/em>Astrobotic<\/em>, <\/em>Voyager<\/em> is now a lunar platform that will have capability at every infrastructure layer needed to put Americans on the lunar surface and keep them there.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

The acquisition directly supports NASA\u2019s Artemis program and Administrator Jared Isaacman\u2019s commitment to a permanent American presence on the Moon by 2028. Voyager intends to accelerate investment to scale Astrobotic\u2019s lunar and reusable rocket programs in support of America\u2019s Moon Base plans.<\/p>\n

Following Voyager\u2019s strategic investment in Max Space\u2019s expandable habitat architecture, the company\u2019s capabilities will span the full arc of lunar operation. This includes lunar mission management, communications and propulsion; surface delivery via Astrobotic\u2019s Peregrine and Griffin landers; surface power through Astrobotic’s LunaGrid solar distribution system; long-duration habitation through Max Space; dust mitigation with Voyager\u2019s clear-dust repellent coating; and in-situ resource production.<\/p>\n

\u201c<\/em>Astrobotic<\/em> was built to prove that commercial companies can deliver to the Moon,\u201d said John Thornton, CEO, Astrobotic.<\/strong> \u201cJoining <\/em>Voyager <\/em>gives that mission the scale and long-term commitment it has been building toward for nearly two decades. Our team, our technology and our homes in Pittsburgh and Mojave remain at the center of what we are building, and now we have a partner with the breadth of capabilities and resources to realize a continuous presence on the Moon.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Recently announced as NASA\u2019s Moon Base II, Griffin Mission One proceeds on schedule. At acquisition close, Astrobotic\u2019s full portfolio will transition under Voyager. Their Moon Base headquarters in Pittsburgh will serve as the center of Voyager\u2019s lunar program, ensuring the continuity and momentum this work demands. The transaction is subject to customary regulatory approvals and is expected to close by early July 2026 for up to approximately $300 million, including contingent consideration, payable in a combination of cash and stock.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
