“That level of expert support gives us more confidence as Starlab moves from design into production.”
Vera Yang, Co-founder and President of Flexcompute
“Life support airflow can't be fully tested on the ground, so simulation carries much of the design work.”
Vera Yang, Co-founder and President of Flexcompute
“Working with Starlab's ECLSS team shows what GPU-native physics makes possible for commercial space: faster answers, earlier in design, so engineers can move forward with confidence.”
