About Us
Outward Technologies was founded in 2017 with a mission to develop critical technologies for extraterrestrial mining and manufacturing. Space resource utilization such as the production of rocket propellants in space is a burgeoning industry seeing rapid growth. Outward Technologies is positioning itself as a pioneer in this new industry by advancing the technologies to access the abundant resources on the Moon and develop industrial infrastructure on other planetary bodies. Grant and award funding is being sought from government agencies such as NASA and the National Science Foundation to conduct fundamental research and technology development for space mining and space resource utilization while pursuing commercially viable terrestrial applications for these technologies.
