Materials get made in cleanrooms, not on paper.
AggieFab's cleanrooms and expertise are turning space-made substrates into something you can build on.

Next week, we're headline sponsors at @esaBSGN's annual Space for Inspiration conference.
Join our Hosted Payloads Workshop, 1st Sept 5.15-6.30pm, where we'll focus on getting payloads to orbit, into microgravity, and back to Earth.

Better substrates start with better research. Space Forge is working with Texas A&M's Semiconductor Institute and AggieFab's cleanrooms to help build our first US semiconductor materials facility.

Orbit is the factory floor. Texas is part of the route to scale.
We’ve signed a Master Research Agreement with @TAMU, laying the groundwork for our first US advanced semiconductor materials facility.
Space-made. Earth-scaled.

Getting back matters as much as getting there.
Our CTO & Co-Founder Andrew Bacon spoke to @TeKNoticias_ about why Space Forge is building in the Azores, and why Santa Maria could become a gateway for materials returning from space.

Capital follows conviction.
The UK's space sector continues to attract investment, and it's great to see in-space manufacturing recognised as part of that growth.

Andrew Bacon, CTO & Co-Founder, joined researchers and industry at Atlantic Space Hub on Santa Maria, or 'Space Island'.
The focus wasn't getting to orbit. It was what orbit enables: new materials, advances in human health and the future of manufacturing.
Backing deep tech takes conviction.
Back in 2020, the Bristol Private Equity Club backed Space Forge when our vision was just getting started.
Six years on, we're grateful to everyone who believed in what we were building.

Everyone talks about launch. We talk about coming home.
📸 CTO & Co-Founder Andrew Bacon shares the latest ForgeStar®-1 results at the 23rd International Planetary Probe Workshop with the experts making return from space possible.
We're hiring a Mixed Signal Electronics Design Engineer to build the hardware behind our ForgeStar® missions.

As Space Forge continues to grow its presence in Portugal, we're excited to have Bruno Carvalho leading the charge as MD of Space Forge Portugal.
Attending the New Atlantic Space Summit, he'll join discussions on the future of the Atlantic region as a hub for space activity.
With ForgeStar®-1 we proved we could create and control the conditions needed to grow next-gen semiconductor materials in orbit.
The next step is bringing those materials home with Pridwen 🔗 businessnewswales.pulse.ly/n…

It’s my birthday and I’ve got science to do 🎂
One year ago, ForgeStar®-1 reached orbit.
Since then, it’s generated plasma in space - proving the conditions needed for semiconductor manufacturing.
Not bad for a one-year-old.
The cake is still under review.
The Atlantic is more than an ocean, it's becoming infrastructure.
Bruno Carvalho, Managing Director of Space Forge Portugal, is joining @portugalspace's New Atlantic Space Summit discussing the region's role in launch and in-space manufacturing.
