The partnership between Atmos Space Cargo and Space Cargo Unlimited is a significant development in the space industry.

Microgravity Research and Manufacturing Missions

Atmos Space Cargo and Space Cargo Unlimited have joined forces to provide microgravity research and manufacturing missions to low Earth orbit (LEO) independently of the International Space Station (ISS).

This collaboration involves a series of seven missions using the BentoBox system, which has the capability to support payloads exceeding 100 kilograms.

First Commercial Mission and Test Flight

The first commercial mission is scheduled for late 2025, with a test flight in April.

The BentoBox System and REV1

The BentoBox system serves as a precursor to a larger automated space factory called REV1, which is expected to be operational by 2028.

New Opportunities for Space-Based Research

The emergence of independent microgravity missions presents new opportunities for companies to capitalize on space-based research.

The successful execution of the BentoBox missions could lead to significant advancements in various fields.
