Ambitious goals are achieved with bold missions. Intuitive Machines has added asteroid mining company AstroForge to its third lunar mission for rideshare delivery services. Welcome to IM-3!
When me and Jose Acain started AstroForge, it was about dreaming bigger than anyone else. Today, we are one step closer to realizing that dream. We are excited to announce our Series A fundraising, securing an additional $40 million to advance our goal of mining the cosmos. The round was led by Nova Threshold, with participation from Seven Seven Six 7️⃣7️⃣6️⃣. Initialized Capital, Jed McCaleb, Victor Vescovo, Y Combinator, Salil Deshpande, Soma Capital, Day One Ventures We also give some insight into our third mission, the first private mission to land on a body outside the earth-moon system. Welcome to the spotlight, Vestri. Thanks to Eric Berger - glad we got to chat again!
Against all odds, an asteroid mining company appears to be making headway
