We're LOX'd and Loaded for LOXSAT❄️Our spacecraft carrying @eta_space's payload will launch on Electron later this year to test out cryo fuel storage and management in low Earth orbit - aka gas station technologies in space⛽
By providing both the spacecraft and the launch for this mission, that's streamlined access to space in action for @eta_space and @NASA_Marshall.

During deep space missions, spacecrafts will need to refuel. So, NASA and Eta Space are working on a technology demonstration called LOXSAT that is necessary for creating in-space propellant depots - aka gas stations.
