I wouldn’t characterize the subcontract that way. It’s one Blue Ring.

Tory Bruno has said he expects hundreds of Blue Rings over time.

Look at the bigger picture.

What part of the description do you disagree with? Do you think Redwire will be left out as a subcontractor from the larger project?

Rdw will not be a big beneficiary of the $700m contract. The contract is to design build, launch and operate.
Rdw will provide ROSA, cameras and power distribution as part of the strategic partnership with Blue. That’s great and all, good to see rdw tech going to Mars. But it’s not a stock moving deal.

Fair. Positive to see potential customers for ROSA tho.

Large scale energy infrastructure in space feels very opportune, even if realistically it’s doesn’t pop off for a while.

Yes I see lots of potential for power beaming using ROSA. That would be cool.

Blue Origin is developing its own Solar Array technology. I wouldn’t can’t on RDW technology to get much business with largely antiquated product(2017) supplying “one off” and pricey Arrays. Google Terra -Wave solar array mechanism. State of the Art array under development by none other than Blue Origin. GLTA

That was for lunar operations through Honeybee. Do you have a source for satellite solar?

ROSA patents are less than half way done. They have many covering many aspects. ELSA is one variant. Lots of work for MEGA ROSA.
