Fleet Space\u2019s \u201cHyper Factory\u201d will be located in the heart of the Australian Space Park, a just-announced hub for the space industry in the Australian state of South Australia. The government is investing 20 million Australian dollars into the facility. Companies Q-CTRL<\/b>, ATSpace<\/b>, and Alauda Aeronautics<\/b> have also signed on. <\/p>\n
Fleet Space plans to design, engineer, and manufacture its next-generation satellite in the facility, which it is calling Alpha.
