Keeping the mission going. 🚀 Katalyst Space Technologies has selected our Air-launched Pegasus rocket for a dedicated launch service to help extend the life of the NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration Swift Observatory
Great to see the mighty Tristar still flying.
Is that a NASA operated L-1011?
Impressive work — great to see Pegasus continuing to support critical NASA missions. Advancing solutions that extend the life of existing assets is a smart and impactful approach.
A remarkable milestone — air-launched platforms like Pegasus continue to show how flexible, rapid-response access to space can extend the life of critical scientific missions such as NASA’s Swift Observatory. Keeping astrophysics assets operational is a major win for the scientific community. In advanced space systems, the importance of ultra-stable timing and low-noise electronics becomes even more critical. At Dynamic Engineers Inc., our OCXOs and precision timing modules are used in mission-critical applications where reliability, vibration resistance, and long-term stability are essential for: 🔹 Satellite payload synchronization 🔹 Telemetry, tracking & control (TT&C) 🔹 Deep-space communication links 🔹 Scientific instruments requiring microsecond-level timing Exciting to see continued innovation that keeps vital space science missions alive. #Aerospace #SpaceTechnology #OCXO #PrecisionTiming #NASA #NorthropGrumman #Pegasus #SatelliteSystems #DynamicEngineers #EverythingRF #GEO #SEO
Space missions require precision engineering and reliable partnerships. Success in aerospace depends on proven systems and teams that deliver mission-critical results consistently. These collaborations advance scientific discovery and expand our understanding of the universe.
Always impressive seeing Pegasus still flying operational missions. Air-launch remains one of the most elegant ways to buy instant flexibility in orbital insertion—altitude, latitude, and weather constraints all shift in your favor. Pairing that with a mission extension for Swift is a smart use of legacy infrastructure that still has real performance headroom. Great to see this capability not just preserved, but actively contributing to science and LEO access. NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration
Great to see Pegasus supporting the Swift mission. A solid choice for keeping an important NASA program moving forward.
