It was an honor to host Chairman @RepMikeRogersAL of the House Armed Services Committee at K2 Space. Proliferated constellations in MEO unlock new opportunities for national security and commercial missions. Our team is hard at work making that vision a reality.

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). https://t.co/yj4Vfeok72
