For a brief moment, another Varda vehicle was the fastest moving manmade object in the entire world. 🔊

Last year’s AC Summer Scout program was a huge success. I’ve decided to run it back another year. And I’m excited that this summer, @sai_mattapalli_ is coming back as the fund’s Managing Partner! Here’s the details: $100K pool, 3-4 team members, 10 weeks in person in NYC…

Sound up for a hit of adrenaline 🔊 Highlight reel of our 2nd reentry vehicle's flight from space to earth.
Last week we landed the first commercial spacecraft in Australia. We're excited to take you behind the scenes of those 30 minutes of reentry onboard the spacecraft, in mission control, and with our recovery team out in AU.
Nothing quite like the feeling of a nominal spacecraft commissioning. Like being handed a free ice cream cone on a hot summer day. Deliciousness with some paranoia 🤌
After a comfy ride to space yesterday, we successfully acquired signal from W-2. Initial checkouts are now complete and we can confirm that the capsule is happy and healthy. We're looking forward to seeing Australia soon! @southernlaunch @AusSpaceAgency
Goin up, on a Tuesday. Now she’s in orbit talking some telemetry.
Our second vehicle, W-2, will lift off this morning from Vandenberg Space Force Base aboard the Transporter-12 rideshare mission with SpaceX. Watch live here: spacex.com/launches/missi…
The @djkhaled of spaceflight regulation.
We are happy to announce that Varda received our FAA reentry license for our third mission launching in March. This flight, like mission two, will advance pharmaceutical research as well as fly several payloads in support of NASA and other government partners.
U.S. Air Force awards Varda $48 million to test payloads on reentry capsules spacenews.com/u-s-air-force-…
Our partners at @AFResearchLab have awarded Varda a flight services contract for reentry experimentation, named AFRL Prometheus.

We are proud to add the first commercial return authorisation from the Australian Government to our list of firsts in the Australian space industry. Excited to welcome @VardaSpace to the Koonibba Test Range in 2025! Read more 👇 southernlaunch.space/news-feed/sout…
Today Varda received authorization from @AusSpaceAgency for multiple W-series vehicle reentries into the Koonibba Test Range, hosted by our friends at @SouthernLaunch. We’re honored to perform Australia’s first commercial space reentry.
Investing in deep tech is more about just betting on getting it to work (hard), but rather building a monopolistic business around it (really hard) Fantastic panel with my partner @WillBruey and friend @codybronkar @AFWERX hosted by @jpmorgan #LATechWeek
