INVEST IN A COMPANY LUNCHING SATELLITES INTO SPACE

The regular readers of this newsletter have seen this one … and if you haven’t looked into it yet, you’re missing out.

Starfighters Space flew me out to the Kennedy Space Center the home of their operations to get a demo of their F-104 Starfighters. These Jets can go Mach 2 (1,500 MPH) and they plan to use them to launch small satellites into space. They’re betting their strategy of being nimble and cheap combined with their decades of experience and connections will let them break into an underserved part of the market.

If you're interested in early-stage investing, Starfighters is currently raising through a Reg A+ offering. You can use the link below to check it out and do your own research.

This is not investment advice. I am doing work with Starfighters and will be buying a little bit into the round. My goal is to put it on your radar in case it’s something you want to dig into!
