Welcome to the next generation of flight. Surf Air Mobility is reinventing flying through the power of electrification, changing everything you've come to expect from aviation. Green flying is a new era of air travel expansion made possible with new technologies that reduce emissions and cost. There's a 910,000,000+ ton carbon problem waiting to be solved. By starting with electrifying smaller existing aircraft, we can take a significant step toward decarbonizing air travel. Green flying redefines our radius of local possibility. As aircraft become cheaper to operate with electrification, we can catalyze new routes that change the paradigm of how we move. A new kind of point-to-point air travel can replace busy highways and large crowded airports.

We see a future where space is the gateway to a more resilient and sustainable Earth. Outpost is creating the world's first commercial reusable satellites that will come back to earth after mission completion and then get refurbished for the next mission, reducing future space debris and contributing to the long term sustainability of human life in space while making the cost of a satellite mission up to 80% cheaper and 100% cleaner. We enable precision Earth Return of satellites and orbital payloads. We believe that our future in space must be built with sustainability at its core and that efficient, precise Earth Return is essential for the development of new industries in space and the improvement of life on Earth. Outpost allows companies to iterate on technical developments in space and ensure mission success. If you believe that the advancement into space will create a better planet Earth for all living beings and have the background to support it, then we want to hear from you.
