Show Notes
Lux Aeterna, a new startup founded by Brian Taylor, aims to make satellites reusable like rockets. Theyve raised $10M in seed funding to build their Delphi spacecraft, set for launch in 2027. After missions, the spacecraft will return payloads to Earth, avoiding the usual burn-up or graveyard orbit fate of most satellites. Competitors like Varda Space and Inversion are testing smaller reentry capsules, but Lux Aeterna plans to upgrade larger satellites annually. Regulatory challenges exist, but Taylor expects faster approvals as the industry expands.
