We’ve gone vertical! 🚀⬆ Our brand new flight-ready oxidizer tank has found its new home! It was a huge feat getting to this point and now we’re that much closer to testing again. Until now, we’ve been testing the components of our rocket propulsion in a horizontal configuration. Having this tank hung vertically means we’re working toward testing in flight configuration. Our next big test is on the horizon!

It's been a busy summer! Our test stand has grown 4x and our team has put in a monumental amount of work to get us to this point. It is all in preparation for our full duration engine burn.

Successful igniter test!! Our engineers are hard at work in preparation for the upcoming engine test. Be sure to tune in to our live stream... more details to come. #rocketengine #aerospace #blushift #ignition #igniter #engineering #propulsion #space #rockets

Happy July 4th!!! Hope you get to see some fire[works] of your own!! 🚀

We are thrilled to announce that we have secured just over $2.3M in funding! $1.3M in private capital paired with a $1M matching Federal SBIR grant to further accelerate our work in the space launch industry. The private round was led by Brady Brim-DeForest, and we are particularly excited to welcome him as our new chairman. This funding marks a crucial chapter in our growth, and it is being put to work immediately - helping us realize the next critical phase of our mission. Soon we will be testing our rocket engine for a full duration burn, a 60-second test fire. A successful burn will prove that our engine is ready to propel our new suborbital rocket all the way to space - a huge milestone in our development. Check out the attached post for more info on what we're building and the link to our press release!

Sascha and David will be attending Space Symposium next week in Colorado, April 8-11. Reach out to either of them directly to schedule a meeting - there are still a few open slots! They would love to meet with potential partners and customers interested in hybrid propulsion technology, LEO, VLEO, SSO and suborbital payloads.

We are so pleased so see this recognition for James! His classroom made the trip up to bluShift in the fall of '22 and it was so inspiring to see an engaged group of high school students totally nerd out on what we're building here. James is so deserving of this - go James Gorman!
