Ethos Space Resources on the record
What they shipped
- From its YC profile: The Moon will become the next Silicon Valley as data centers move to space. Already, rockets cannot keep up with launch demand. We make silicon from raw materials already present on the Moon, so that power in space can be made in space. Silicon on the Moon is how to ascend the Kardashev scale. (source)
Who is behind it
- Ross Centers, Founder/CEO: Lunar resource geologist. Founder of Planetary Sunshade Institute. Kardashev scaling since 2015. (source)
- Brogan BamBrogan, Founder/CTO: Employee #23 at SpaceX. Designed and built the 2nd stage engine for Falcon 1 as well as many elements of the Dragon spacecraft, including the primary heat shield, Draco thrusters, and more. Later co-founder & CTO at Hyperloop One and co-founder & CEO at Arrivo. Earlier engineering roles at Northrop Grumman and Chrysler Motors. (source)
