Voyager Space Holdings to take majority stake in Nanoracks
Posted: Sat, Jan 2, 2021, 12:40 PM ET (1740 GMT)
Voyager Space Holdings is acquiring a majority stake in commercial space station company Nanoracks. Terms of the deal, announced Dec. 23, were not disclosed, but Nanoracks said that Voyager will provide capital both in the acquisition and in the future to support its future plans. Nanoracks flies payloads to the International Space Station, including satellites for deployment there, and recently installed a commercial airlock on the station. The company has long-term plans to develop commercial space platforms using repurposed upper stages. The acquisition is the fourth by Voyager, a holding company that buys space companies to provide them with a long-term source of capital and shared services.
