About

Inversion Space is an aerospace company developing space-based delivery vehicles to transport cargo anywhere on Earth in under an hour. Founded in 2021 by engineers from SpaceX and ABL Space Systems, the company operates from a 55,000-square-foot facility in Los Angeles with a dedicated test site in the Mojave Desert. It employs a team of approximately 60 people.

The company's first spacecraft, Ray, has successfully completed over 1,600 orbits. Its next-generation vehicle, Arc, is designed as a rapid global cargo delivery system, leveraging re-entry vehicle technology. Inversion Space secured $44 million in Series A funding and holds a $71 million contract with the U.S. Space Force.
