ExLabs, based in Long Beach, is preparing for a groundbreaking space mission to the asteroid Apophis. The spacecraft, set to launch in April 2028, will autonomously chase the asteroid for a year before making contact in April 2029. The mission aims to analyze the asteroids composition and structure, with potential implications for asteroid prospecting and off-world resource extraction. ExLabs, funded by various government agencies and private clients, envisions a future of three-D printed ships and moon-orbit mining parks, potentially revolutionizing defense and space exploration.
