This critical capability will enhance Virgin Orbit's end-to-end responsive space service offering.
"Redwire is extremely proud to support Virgin Orbit with our state-of-the-art ACORN Digital Engineering software suite and other critical technologies," said Peter Cannito, Chairman and CEO of Redwire. "These solutions significantly enhance their ability to rapidly design, develop and deploy space capabilities anywhere in the world."
"We are excited about the partnership with Redwire and how combining our capabilities will build and enhance our current and future ability to serve our growing markets," said Dan Hart, President and CEO of Virgin Orbit.
Redwire recently announced the debut of its Hyperion Operational Space Simulation Laboratory (HOSS)-a first-of-its-kind digital engineering environment that leverages the company's full suite of digital engineering capabilities, including software- and hardware-in-the-loop configurations, to enable next generation space architectures and solutions, such as advanced artificial intelligence, machine learning and cyber technologies.
HOSS enables collaboration with government and commercial partners such as Virgin Orbit to rapidly design, develop, deploy, operate and maintain mission critical space capabilities.

Vibration tests for Moon rocket help ensure safe travels on road to space
Huntsville AL (SPX) Aug 20, 2021
Driving down a bumpy gravel road, even an off-road vehicle experiences bumps and vibrations, partly because of the car's natural frequency. An object's natural frequency is the frequency or rate that it vibrates naturally when struck. When forces like speed and the smoothness of the road are just right, the car will vibrate in tune with that same frequency. Rockets flying through the atmosphere to space, including NASA's Space Launch System (SLS), are no different. They have natural frequencies an ... read more
