ABOUT

New Frontier Aerospace, founded in 2020 and based in Seattle, Washington, builds propulsion systems and vehicles including the Mjölnir rocket engine and the Bifröst orbit transfer spacecraft, selected by SpaceWERX for development. The company is also advancing a renewably fueled hypersonic VTOL aircraft intended to transport passengers and cargo anywhere on Earth in two hours or less, and has signed a CRADA with the Air Force Institute of Technology to support that effort.
