The George C. Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC) is the U.S. government's civilian rocketry and spacecraft propulsion research center. It is the largest center of NASA.

MSFC's first mission was developing the Saturn launch vehicles for the Apollo moon program. Marshall is today the agency's lead center for Space Shuttle propulsion and its external tank; payloads and related crew training; International Space Station (ISS) design and assembly; and computers, networks, and information management. Located on the Redstone Arsenal near Huntsville, Alabama, MSFC is named in honor of General of the Army George Marshall.

The center also contains the Huntsville Operations Support Center (HOSC), a facility that supports Space Shuttle launch, payload and experiment activities at the Kennedy Space Center, ISS launch and experiment operations. The HOSC also monitors rocket launches from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station when a Marshall Center payload is on board.

Haigh-Farr pioneered the Wraparound™ antenna concept whose versatility and compactness have enhanced performance capabilities of aircraft, missiles and spacecraft worldwide.

Dragon is a partially reusable spacecraft developed by the company SpaceX.

Dragon is launched into space by the SpaceX Falcon 9 two-stage-to-orbit launch vehicle. During its uncrewed maiden flight in December 2010, Dragon became the first commercially built and operated spacecraft to be recovered successfully from orbit. On 25 May 2012, an uncrewed variant of Dragon became the first commercial spacecraft to successfully rendezvous and be attached to the International Space Station (ISS).

Reliable System Services Corp. provides solutions in areas of Wireless Data Links, System Design, Hardware Design, System Integration and Link/Network Management Software.

RSS has developed a portfolio of technical projects and products, from complete turnkey systems to custom box-level products. RSS has provided customized technical solutions as a prime contractor. It was founded in 1986 with the goal of providing custom technical solutions to the DoD. 

Safran S.A. is a French multinational aircraft & rocket engine, aerospace component and security company.

It was formed by a merger between the aircraft & rocket engine manufacturer and aerospace component manufacturer group SNECMA and the security company SAGEM in 2005. Its headquarters are located in Paris.

SAFRAN Pyroalliance is a European producer of energetic equipment: design, production and marketing of a wide range of equipment to meet the demanding specifications of aerospace, defense and industry. These energetic equipments perform a number of critical functions, including launch, propulsion, flight control and range safety.

SAFRAN Pyroalliance is a subsidiary of Herakles (Safran group).

It has built up expertise in the technologies needed to convert energy from an energetic material (grain, propellant, explosive) into a function or combination of functions. These functions generally involve a mechanical action (push, pull, inflate, cut, release, etc.), or the transmission of a command (ignite, separate, supply a fluid, generate a gas or thrust). A complete function can be performed by coupling different assemblies (ignition and safety, command transmission, terminal functions such as ignition or a mechanical action).

Pyrotechnic technologies offer a number of advantages over conventional electromechanical, pneumatic or hydraulic systems:

• Significant energy developed in a controlled time (from less than a millisecond to several seconds).
• Low triggering energy (mechanical or electric).
• Smaller and lighter.
• Very high reliability, security and availability.
• Little or no maintenance over lifetime.
• Operating time compatible with need for simultaneous or synchronized requirements.
• Robust resistance to external hazards (vibration, shock, electrostatic discharge, electromagnetic, thermal, etc.).

Shapes Aerospace specializes in fabrication and machining of complex, high precision component parts, assemblies and tooling for aerospace, aircraft, turbine, medical and defense: from miniature parts for satellites and missiles, to mid-size components for aircraft engine and ground turbine applications to large assemblies and tooling for composites and aerospace ground support.

Skywin Wallonie is the Belgian Aerospace Cluster, created and labellized by the Walloon Region in July 2006.

Resulting from the merge of the two previous clusters EWA and Wallonie Espace, respectively dedicated to Aeronautics and Space sectors, Skywin Wallonie is "weighting" 7,000 jobs and represents a global revenue of 1.25 billion Euros.

For Space, the priority goes to the development of space applications and related services. Besides, Skywin also aims at supporting the development of earth observation instruments. The cluster is actively supporting the technological transfer and the spin-off creation, especially when related to space technologies that are recognized as "standard". Furthermore, Skywin acts as a lever for new technological developments, in good intelligence and coordination with the federal space industry policy (i.e. Belspo - The Belgian Science Policy).
