Momentus Space LLC remote jobs and company guide

In 2017, Momentus was founded with a vision to revolutionize how we operate in space. The founders recognized a critical gap in the space industry: while launching payloads into orbit had become more accessible, moving those payloads once in space remained prohibitively expensive and complex. They set out to build a new kind of space transportation company - one that would make in-space mobility as routine as ground-based logistics, enabling a new era of space commerce and exploration.

Today, Momentus is at the forefront of commercial space infrastructure, offering in-space transportation, hosted payloads, and in-orbit services. The company's innovative Vigoride orbital service vehicles utilize a breakthrough water plasma-based propulsion system - the Microwave Electrothermal Thruster (MET) - that provides cost-effective, efficient, and environmentally friendly propulsion. With multiple successful missions including Vigoride-3, Vigoride-5, and Vigoride-6 launched aboard SpaceX Transporter missions, Momentus has demonstrated its ability to deliver satellites to custom orbits and support cutting-edge research for partners like NASA, Caltech's Space-based Solar Power Project, and various commercial customers.
