From Earth orbit to the Moon & beyond, the ability to move quickly, precisely, & affordably on orbit is the fundamental capability that will unlock a true space age." We cover: → The $500M raise → Mira: precision maneuvering → Helios: same-day delivery → Caravan: GEO rideshare → Commercial vs defense → Space Force demand → SpaceX origins → Hiring 200+ roles The Series D was co-led by 137 Ventures & BANNER VC. Additional participating investors include Founder’s Fund, Lux Capital, & Linse Capital.

.Impulse Space President and COO Eric Romo says the idea of cleaning up space junk is a "scam": "People show these really misleading graphics like, 'Oh my God, look at all that junk around Earth. It's so congested. It's all going to blow up and crash into each other.'" "The reality is, if you showed that at scale, you wouldn't even see the satellites because they're all so tiny."

Tom Mueller Tom Mueller says he left SpaceX to start Impulse Space because after developing the Merlin engine and working on Starship for 6 years, he realized launch was essentially solved: "When I left, I had the plan of launch mostly being solved or is being solved. The next big opportunity is to move all that payload, all that cargo around in space." "So I started Impulse Space to do in-space transportation as opposed to from Earth to space transportation, which was SpaceX." Elon Musk

Can companies responsibly build a business model around Starship? .Eric Romo, President & COO of Impulse Space doesn't think so. "Why would you (SpaceX) sell a thing you don’t have enough of for yourself, at a bargain-basement price, to your competitors? The logic just doesn’t hold anywhere there. And it’s just sort of the wishful thinking of, “Well, because I want it,” that these companies say they’re going to get this at a low price. And the reality is, in the market, this is the same thing that happened with Falcon 9."

BREAKING: Eric Romo (Eric Romo), President & COO of Impulse Space (Impulse Space) says: "The idea that launch prices are going to fall significantly in the next 5 years is nonsense." "I think there are an awful lot of business models that are predicated on “when Starship allows me to launch for $200 a kilogram…” I think they’re all broken, & all those companies are going to fail." "I think we’ve seen this play out already with Falcon 9 & the pricing around it, where the costs of Falcon 9 allowed SpaceX to deliver the Starlink constellation at a cost per CapEx that made them profitable. But they set the price in the market at something that just barely made it an okay investment to think about OneWeb or Kuiper or anything like that. So they ran that playbook exactly on Falcon 9, & they had their gross margins on Falcon 9—people think we’ll see when the S1 comes out—are like 50% plus. So they could have dropped the price, & they didn’t. They’re going to do the same thing on Starship, because why wouldn’t they? Their internal costs on Starship are going to be whatever they need to be to deploy Starlink & orbital data centers, but they’re going to set the price so that anybody trying to do comms, anybody trying to do orbital data centers—the price is going to be too high. So if you’re a third party relying on them for a lower price of access to space, I think you’re hosed." 00:20 Hot Take Launch Prices 01:41 SpaceX Market Power 02:23 Impulse Space Overview 02:54 Mira For GEO Defense 03:45 Helios Direct To GEO 05:19 Caravan Rideshare To GEO 06:42 Space Economy Reality Check 08:46 Tom Mueller Legends 10:54 SpaceX IPO 13:42 Investor Frenzy & Broomstick 14:05 Alien Eyeballs Outro Elon Musk Recorded at NYSE 🏛 x Payload 🚀 Space Summit

🚨 NOW: President Trump takes huge VICTORY LAP on the success of Space Force — which some Democrats MOCKED Space Force is now vastly improving the accuracy of our weapons on the ground. And we're leading China and Russia, easily 🔥 "I'm very proud of the Space Force because that was a branch that a new one that came up, and we were losing to Russia and to China in space." "Space Force is now leading the other countries, China, Russia, and there is no fourth, really, and leading them by, we saw numbers the other day, leading, we're leading in space by so much it's, we're never going to be caught. So I'm very proud of Space Force!" "I think it's going to be one of our most important as time goes by. A lot of the things that you see, a lot of the accuracy of the weapons is caused because of what we created with Space Force, so we're very proud of that."

CEO & CTO of Impulse Space Impulse Space Tom Mueller Tom Mueller says the Moon is "more important than Mars" in the near term: "Jared Isaacman said we're going to build a base on the Moon and stay there." "People are predicting we'll run out of copper in the next few years. Data centers require so much copper." "We need to start getting copper from the Moon or from the asteroids. There's an almost infinite supply in our solar system of material—enough to supply us for thousands of years." "We just gotta get ready to go get it."

At NASA, we take to the skies for training, cutting-edge flight test programs, to send our astronauts to space, and to inspire the next generation to look up and imagine what is possible. Today, we had the opportunity to fly Lara Trump and Eric Trump over NASA’s Kennedy Space Center, and to show them where history is being made on the ground, including a visit to the Vehicle Assembly Building and the Artemis II rocket that will send NASA astronauts farther into space than ever before. We were honored to host you where America reaches for the stars.

NEW: How 137 Ventures Built a 1%+ Position in SpaceX Over 16 Years Interview with Justin Fishner-Wolfson, Co-Founder & Managing Partner One of the most underrated investment stories in tech: a contrarian approach that built one of the most consequential ownership positions in the industry. 137 quietly accumulated SpaceX since 2011, investing over 2 dozen times & never sold a share. Today the firm runs $15B+ AUM, deployed $1.7B last year, holds positions in 40+ companies, & has backed nearly 60 portfolio companies in company’s history. Big names include: SpaceX, Palantir, Uber, Anduril, Cognition, Brex, Impulse Space, Gusto, Ramp, & Hadrian. The thesis, circa 2011: companies would stay private longer. That bet built into one of venture's largest SpaceX positions, accumulated through secondaries and tenders.

Impulse Space is on a mission to accelerate humanity's future beyond Earth. To get there, they are building the spacecraft that will advance the orbital economy, and need to test as fast as they build. Before Revel, standing up a new test stand took 1–3 weeks, first-time deployments could take up to 3 months, software changes required looping in a specialist, and the team was locked into a single DAQ ecosystem. Now, stands are up in days, sometimes even hours. Engineers self-serve on sequence changes, the program runs multiple test fires per day instead of one every other day, and with the ability to mix and match hardware across vendor ecosystems, the team saves over 100x on hardware alone. Today, Revel runs across hundreds of Impulse assets — engine stands, vacuum chambers, avionics test stands, facility monitoring, and more — creating a single codebase that can be maintained and deployed consistently at scale. Thanks to Tom Mueller, Eric Romo, Dane Sarcone, Julia Vyborny, Trevor Hanken, and the rest of the Impulse Space team for the partnership. Read the full case study at

It was SpaceX when Butch Wilmore was stranded in space. Who saved them? No, it was not the public sector, it was the private sector. It was SpaceX.
