With some luck and a lot of engineering, Vestri is going to land on an M-type asteroid sometime in 2026.

The future home of Mission 3 - Vestri.

Goodbye Odin. Don't forget your passport, and see you in the Cosmos.

If we can photograph a bird flying ~50mph, we can definitely capture an asteroid moving at nearly 1,000x that speed

Testing out our long range imagers on the local birds

Running some live data through our Mission Ops Control room in prep for launching Odin into Deep Space!

This allows us to test different configurations and replace any defective components we discover along the way. This approach is core to the thesis of AstroForge. Time to ship Odin to the Cape!

This ensures that if something is wrong, we can identify and fix it as efficiently as possible. Our next launch, Odin, is no exception. The spacecraft was designed to be assembled and disassembled in hours rather than days.

We're building something nobody has ever done before. All of our designs are created to enable the testing of different parts of the vehicle in various configurations as quickly as possible.

We just completed what will be the final reassembly of Odin, our mission to the cosmos.

Suns out, super flimsy guns out that make sure we get power positive

Last minute testing of our ability to track the stars. Since they weren't open to doing this test during normal business hours, we're pulling a late night here

The launch of our second mission will achieve several world firsts 🌎🚀

-The first privately funded mission outside Earth's gravitational pull.
-The first high-resolution images of a metal asteroid ever taken.
-The first use of a second slot on a rocket to access deep space.

I got the power! ⚡ #ChargingUp

I believe I can flyyyy 🎶

Monday Marvels 😍

Odin enjoyed sunbathing during some testing last week.

Transmissions from AstroForge: Episode 5 YouTube video by AstroForge

We gave our team the mic for this special episode of Transmissions - no scripts, no bribes (we promise). Thankfully they didn’t roast us…

Grateful for our amazing crew that propels our mission and keeps work fun!

Odin's back from Vibe testing and has never looked better.

Hi, we're here. Let's do this.
