Frontier Aerospace Corporation is pleased to announce the company’s achievement of AS9100 Revision D certification. This certification further solidifies Frontier’s commitment to provide reliable, cutting-edge in-space propulsion solutions for our defense and commercial customers.

AS9100 is a widely recognized quality management system standard specific to the aviation, space, and defense sectors and is managed by the International Aerospace Quality Group (IAQG). It builds upon the foundation of ISO 9001, incorporating additional requirements relevant to these industries, such as risk management, product safety, and configuration control.

Many thanks to our entire team for their commitment to quality and the achievement of this milestone!

Expanding the frontier of propulsion technology from the comfort of our homes. To do our part to slow the spread, Frontier leadership implemented a remote-working strategy ahead of the state stay-at-home order.

Here’s a view of our arrangements and some new (highly appreciated) “co-workers”.

Major program milestones achieved! Last month Frontier Aerospace Corporation successfully completed Development Hot-Fire testing of our 150-lbf “Axial” TALOS thruster. Just yesterday we held the first Critical Design Review (CDR) of the NASA TALOS development project.

The TALOS (Thruster for the Advancement of Low-temperature Operation in Space) project goals are to develop and qualify 150-lbf “Axial” and 10-lbf “ACS” thrusters capable of high-performance and stable combustion using MON-25 and MMH as the hypergolic propellants. Propellant heating systems and their power sources add mass and cost, which reduces resources available for deep-space missions. MON-25 has a much lower freezing point than the commonly used oxidizer, MON-3, which makes MON-25 a better candidate for deep-space systems when paired with MMH.

Completion of development testing and CDR are major steps in bringing this next-generation technology to space flight; advancing the capability of both NASA and commercial partners to go further with more science.

The qualified Axial thruster design will go into production, under the Frontier Aerospace Corporation Engine Testing (FACET) project, for use on Astrobotic Technology's Peregrine lunar lander. The Peregrine is scheduled to deliver NASA and commercial payloads to the moon in 2021.

The Frontier team would like to recognize the tremendous effort and support of the customer teams at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center and Astrobotic.
