Spacecraft connect into the Star Catcher Network and receive conditioned energy via their existing solar arrays, requiring no retrofit to utilize the first true space-based infrastructure. The Star Catcher Network provides power as needed from tens of Watts to tens of thousands of Watts at concentrations from fractions of a Sun of flux to ten Suns of flux.&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>The Star Catcher Network enables More Uptime, More Bandwidth, and More Mission.</strong></p> <p>Join our team of experienced and passionate space innovators driven to transform and expand humanity’s utilization of space. The creation of space-based power infrastructure is as impactful for space missions in the 2020’s and 2030’s as the advent of low-cost launch services was in the 2010’s. We seek individuals who share our passion for enabling people to do more in space and are not afraid to get their hands dirty to make our vision of the future reality.</p> </div> </div> </div> <div class="mt-8 text-xl text-gray-600 leading-8"> <div data-controller="rich-text"> <div class="rich-text-container" data-rich-text-target="richTextContainer"> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Star Catcher Industries, Inc.
