Company profile

Equatorial Space company profile

Equatorial Space is a rocket propulsion and launcher startup that aspires to make space launch as safe and affordable as commercial air travel. We will achieve that goal by simplifying the most failure-prone and expensive part of launch vehicles - their propulsion. Our rocket systems are non-explosive, eco-friendly, and halve the component requirements while being potentially reusable. This safe and efficient combination is made possible thanks to our proprietary solid fuel composition with a wide range of civilian and military applications. Equatorial Space won the MBRSC Innovation Cup in Dubai in 2018, and graduated from The Hangar by NUS Enterprise programme in Singapore in 2019. We have been featured in a number of regional and international publications including Channel NewsAsia, Nikkei Asian Review and South China Morning Post prior to incorporation of an American C Corporation to foster our growth. In 2021, Equatorial Space secured a place in the inaugural batch of the Q Station Accelerator, backed by the US Space Force and the Air Force Research Lab in Albuquerque, NM, and Techstars Los Angeles. The Company maintains presence in Singapore, Australia and the United States
