Expert Statements
Rob DeMillo, CEO and Cofounder of Sophia Space
“We're past the point of asking whether high-performance computing belongs in orbit. The question now is how quickly we can scale it. Redwire brings the deployment and systems expertise that can help us move from individual missions to persistent computing infrastructure in orbit. That is the transition we're building toward now.”
Al Tadros, Chief Technology Officer, Redwire Space
“The demand for global computing is scaling exponentially, and the advancement of orbital data centers represents an exciting paradigm shift where space infrastructure can scale critical capacity beyond the constraints of terrestrial infrastructure. As a leading space infrastructure provider, Redwire is translating the maturation of the orbital data center market into exciting opportunities to build next-generation architectures that could unlock significant economic value.”
