Voyager Technologies, a space and defense company, disclosed on Tuesday that it has confidentially filed for an initial public offering in the United States as reported by Reuters. The firm, previously known as Voyager Space, did not reveal the size of the offering or the price range. Observers say the decision comes as equity markets regain strength, interest rates fall, and expectations rise for a friendlier regulatory climate under President Donald Trump.
The company was founded in 2019 and reports over 2,000 space missions for commercial, civil, national security, and non-profit clients in about 35 countries. Voyager has been developing its private space station, called Starlab, which received an $80 million boost in 2023 and additional support from NASA in 2024. In 2022, Voyager joined forces with Airbus to form Starlab Space LLC, a joint venture that will design, build, and operate the future station.
Meanwhile, policy analysts believe the Trump administration may remove the White House’s National Space Council, which Musk’s SpaceX has encouraged officials to cut. Such moves could shake up the sector, as leaders watch for shifts that might change the pace of commercial space projects.
