This allows us to test different configurations and replace any defective components we discover along the way. This approach is core to the thesis of AstroForge. Time to ship Odin to the Cape!

This ensures that if something is wrong, we can identify and fix it as efficiently as possible. Our next launch, Odin, is no exception. The spacecraft was designed to be assembled and disassembled in hours rather than days.

We're building something nobody has ever done before. All of our designs are created to enable the testing of different parts of the vehicle in various configurations as quickly as possible.
