Deep Space Industries plans to land on an asteroid by 2020

Was founded in 2012, as a venture to mine recourses from asteroids

Became famous for its water based electrothermal propulsion system known as the comet™

Four comet systems are currently in orbit being operated by other companies

Peter Stibrany, a strategist and innovator who helped develop the world’s first microsatellite telescope, has been appointed as the company’s Chief Business Developer and Strategist

Bill Miller will be joining the company as chief executive officer to position DSI for rapid growth in the coming years

With an impeccable track record of growing technology companies, Bill brings game-changing approaches, solutions, and perspectives to DSI

Doug Jones, formerly chief test engineer at XCOR, is joining the company’s growing team as director of propulsion systems

BRADFORD SPACE INC.

Bradford space has acquired Deep Space Industries, as of January 2nd 2019

DSI will be the first substantial U.S. presence for the Bradford group allowing them access to the U.S. space market

DSI will be rebranded Bradford Space Inc

In acquiring control of DSI, Bradford has also assumed ownership and continued development of the Xplorer mission bus, a project by DSI to provide a lower-cost basis for deep space missions

Renaming the project Deep Space Xplorer (DSX) BSI intends to continue developing the micro-spacecraft for low cost interplanetary missions

The system hopes to take advantage of private sector space exploration by hitchhiking on commercial or NASA space launches enabling missions to be significantly reduced in cost

Once in low earth orbit DSX will loiter around earth waiting for the signal to begin its mission, which can then be accomplished under its own power
