Nyx Moon

Nyx

A reusable, launcher-agnostic cargo capsule designed to dock with the ISS and future commercial stations and return cargo to Earth. The Nyx Earth stack is a conical capsule plus cylindrical service module, about 4 m in diameter and 7 m tall with a total mass of 8 tonnes, able to carry several tonnes to LEO and return up to 3,000 kg. Company pages say it is reusable for up to 10 missions. A crewed version for 4-5 people is described as a mid-2030s follow-on. The first full-scale flight is the ESA ALADDIN ISS cargo demonstration on Ariane 6, company-targeted for 2028, with ISS docking reported no later than Q2 2029.

Storm

TEC's reusable high-thrust rocket engine program, using a full-flow staged-combustion cycle on liquid oxygen and biomethane. Designed for up to 180 tonnes of sea-level thrust and intended as the propulsion foundation for a future European reusable heavy launcher (the company briefly showed a nine-engine Yrene concept in 2026, then described it as long-term). Hardware work covers turbomachinery, preburners, and additive manufacturing, with subscale tests at DLR Lampoldshausen under ESA's THRUST! framework.

Oura

An in-orbit servicing spacecraft designed to dock with and refuel satellites, supported by ESA's In-Space Proof-of-Concepts (InSPoC) effort inside the Future Launchers Preparatory Programme. First launch has been discussed for 2028.

New Glenn

Blue Origin

Heavy-lift orbital launch vehicle with a reusable first stage, designed for commercial, civil, and national security missions.

New Shepard

Blue Origin

Suborbital launch vehicle for space tourism and research, capable of fully autonomous vertical landing and reuse.

BE-4 Engine

Blue Origin

Liquid oxygen/liquefied natural gas (methane) rocket engine - the first American-made oxygen-rich staged combustion engine. Powers New Glenn and ULA Vulcan Centaur.

Blue Moon

Blue Origin

Lunar landing system family with a cargo-focused Mark 1 variant and a crew-capable Mark 2 variant being developed for NASA's Artemis program.
