Introducing Cowboy Space Corp. On a mission to power humanity from the high frontier.



We are excited to announce a $30M Series B led by @IndustriousVC, with participation from @TypeOneVC, @EniacVC, Reliable Equity, @PromusVentures, @endeavor_global, and others to accelerate the critical industrial mobility layer required for a Moon Base. “Lunar Outpost is moving beyond early missions to scaled, repeatable deployment,” said @TaylorCSargent, Partner at Industrious Ventures. “They’ve proven they can build for one of the most challenging environments imaginable, with significant demand across government programs and commercial customers. They are building the systems that will be relied on again and again as we return to the Moon, set our sights on Mars, and build a robust space economy.” The Series B builds on a strong foundation of financial success and market validation. Lunar Outpost has doubled its revenue each year for the past four years and secured eight fully contracted lunar and cislunar missions. Lunar Outpost has consistently delivered ahead of schedule on aggressive timelines, with multiple systems already delivered and deployed. Combined with a strong cadence of government and commercial contracts, the new financing ensures the company is well-positioned as it executes on its rapidly expanding mission portfolio.

We're partnering with @XPRIZE and Range Media Partners to launch the Future Vision XPRIZE, a $3.5 million global film competition. We're putting out a call for short films and trailers that envision an optimistic, technology-forward future, using the power of storytelling and AI tools like @FlowByGoogle.












Worrying that your startup will be eaten by the model companies is like worrying that your life will be constrained after you become a movie star. You're far more likely simply to fail.


We’re announcing two new partnerships to bring innovative energy generation and storage to our data centers: 1/ 🛰️ Space Solar: Partnering with Overview Energy to beam up to 1 GW of space solar power from orbit to Earth for around the clock power production.
