Ursa Major is the leading independent rocket propulsion provider and a critical player in building the defense industrial base in the United States. As the first American company to fire an oxygen-rich staged combustion engine—a milestone previously only achieved by Russian engine-makers—Ursa Major provides reusable, high-performing propulsion systems to commercial space enterprises, defense contractors, and the Department of Defense for launch, hypersonics, and national security missions. Joe Laurienti will explain Ursa Major’s vision and provide an overview of their unique testing and advanced manufacturing capabilities. The program will include a tour of Ursa Major’s 90-acre headquarters which co-locates engineering, manufacturing, & testing operations, allowing for unmatched development time and rapid iteration. With multiple full-engine test stands, sub-component testing, multi-propellant testing, and more than 60,000 square feet of manufacturing and build space, we’re proud to call Colorado home. Additionally, Ursa Major’s Youngstown Ohio facility is home to 3D printing of proprietary copper alloys which enables additive manufacturing for rapid prototyping, research, and development for future products, and low rate of initial production.
