Dispatch | YC P26

▤ Summary

Dispatch is launching a space logistics platform built around satellites that can carry cargo to orbit and return it safely to Earth. The company is targeting microgravity manufacturing use cases such as semiconductors, pharmaceuticals, and 3D printed organs. It says its first system can host up to 30 kilograms of payload and uses a proprietary heat shield for reentry. The team also says it has already tested a full-scale heat shield in the Mojave and built the system at far lower cost than incumbents. This launch positions Dispatch as an infrastructure provider for companies that want to manufacture in space.
