US Space Startup Sets Up Manufacturing Plant for Ranger Spacecraft
US space startup Quantum Space is establishing a new manufacturing plant in Tulsa, Oklahoma, to scale up production of its Ranger spacecraft and components. The facility, located adjacent to Tulsa International Airport, will be renovated from a historic aerospace production site. This move complements Quantum Space’s existing facilities in California and Maryland and follows the company’s recent $80 million Series A funding round. The development is also seen as a boost to Oklahoma’s ambitions to become a major aerospace hub, with several other companies recently investing in the state’s sector.
