Update on Ursa Major<\/li>\n

News from Hydrosat and more<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n
Japanese company ispace lost communication with its Hakuto-R lander just moments before it was\u00a0 supposed to touch down on the lunar surface<\/a>, a major blow for what the company hoped would be the first fully private lander to reach the moon.<\/p>\n
\u201cAt this moment, we have not been able to confirm successful landing on the lunar surface,\u201d ispace CEO Takeshi Hakamada said on the company\u2019s livestream. \u201cCurrently, we have not confirmed the communication from the lander. [\u2026] We have to assume that we could not complete the landing on the lunar surface.\u201d<\/p>\n
He said that ispace engineers will continue to assess the situation and provide an update once that investigation is complete.<\/p>\n
In an interview with TechCrunch, Hakamada said that while it is possible that the lander is safe and intact on the surface, there is no data to support that yet and it\u2019s unclear whether imagery from a lunar orbiter could shed light on the situation either.<\/p>\n

Rocket engine maker Ursa Major had some big wins: First, it publicly announced news that Astra\u2019s new Rocket 4 launch vehicle will use Ursa Major\u2019s Hadley<\/a> liquid engine to power its upper stage. Then, I uncovered that the company quietly closed a massive new tranche of funding last October at a $400 million pre-money valuation.
Ursa, led by CEO Joe Laurienti, is building a 5,000-pound liquid oxygen and kerosene engine called Hadley and a much larger, 10x more powerful Ripley engine with a 50,000-pound thrust. The company eschews the vertical integration paradigm that has historically dominated the aerospace industry. Instead, it focuses solely on the engine, one of the trickiest parts of a rocket to develop.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe really like the notion that we are a technology development company, and the companies that are flying rockets today should not be flying the same engine that they architected for their rocket 10 years ago,\u201d Laurienti told TechCrunch in an interview last year. \u201cThat\u2019s the paradigm we see in vertical integration.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ursa\u2019s other public customers include small launch companies Phantom Space and Stratolaunch. The company has also scored an engine delivery contract with the U.S. Air Force.<\/p>\n
