Spacecraft represent the most pressing need across the entire aerospace industry. As more launch vehicles come online and the cost to orbit decreases, more companies launching payloads to space continue to emerge. For the first time in history, this influx of payload companies combined with reduced launch costs has resulted in a massive increase in need for commercial spacecraft platforms, known as satellite buses. These buses hold the payloads of our customers and are flown on launch vehicles. Apex manufactures these satellite buses at scale using a combination of software, vertical integration, and hardware that is designed for manufacturing. Our spacecraft enable the future of society: ranging from earth observation to communications and more. We’d love for you to join us on our mission of providing humankind access to the galaxy beyond our planet.

Key clients include NASA, Lockheed Martin, the U.S. Space Force and Amazon. We’re building a launch system we are proud of – no gimmicks or over-design, just reliable, rapid, deployable launches. We’re an ambitious team with big goals and, together, we’re determined to prove that reaching space can be simple, efficient, and routine. When launch day arrives, we want you by our side.
SpaceX designs, manufactures and launches the world’s most advanced rockets and spacecraft. The company was founded in 2002 by Elon Musk to revolutionize space transportation, with the ultimate goal of making life multiplanetary. SpaceX has gained worldwide attention for a series of historic milestones. It is the only private company ever to return a spacecraft from low-Earth orbit, which it first accomplished in December 2010. The company made history again in May 2012 when its Dragon spacecraft attached to the International Space Station, exchanged cargo payloads, and returned safely to Earth — a technically challenging feat previously accomplished only by governments. Since then Dragon has delivered cargo to and from the space station multiple times, providing regular cargo resupply missions for NASA.

SkyThread is an aviation consortium and technology ecosystem to optimize data flow across aviation transactions, with critical focus to aircraft asset management, aftermarket, and MRO (maintenance, repair, and overhaul.) Leveraging blockchain, SkyThread is building a federated system of record for the aviation industry to track: 1. Planes and their history of owners, configurations, and maintenance events back to original manufacture and entry-into-service. 2. All the parts on a plane and their provenance, including time on wing, time off wing, and maintenance history back to original manufacture and entry-into-service. 3. All the technicians that work on planes and their parts, including their certification and training history. 4. The locations of where maintenance is performed on planes. These four elements, called "The 4Ps" (for #Planes, #Parts, #People, and #Places) form a core Utility Layer to the SkyThread ecosystem, for which 20+ consortium governed applications will drive upwards of $33B in yearly value to the aviation industry.
