Outpost Technologies Corporation
Outpost is pioneering the future of space logistics, building the critical return vehicle from space to Earth. By accelerating the transition of industry into orbit, the company is unlocking new possibilities for space-based manufacturing and global logistics. With a focus on precision landing and scalable design, Outpost spacecraft are engineered to return valuable payloads safely and efficiently, enabling industries to leverage the benefits of space. The company’s flagship project, the Ferryall spacecraft, is supported by the U.S. Government, with four missions planned over the next four years. The company’s Carryall vehicle in development is designed to return up to 10 tons from space, significantly expanding the scope of what’s possible for space-based operations. In August 2024, Outpost was selected by the U.S. Air Force for a $33.2M contract to develop a scalable earth return vehicle for hypersonic testing and re-entry missions.
Founded in October 2021 by space manufacturing veteran Jason Dunn, Outpost operates out of Santa Monica, California, with additional offices and production facilities in Mojave, California.
