Curious why they didn’t go bigger.
Not going to solve your launch issues in the next 3 years and might hit f9 prices just in time for Starship’s ramp.

The sun is cleaner, cheaper, and more abundant than fossil fuels. It must be made available at night.

People think NetZero means luxury communism and printing a trillion dollars a year to sequester CO2.

It refers to the size of the global economy necessary to solve the climate problem the dumb way. And the returns of the governments and funds that try it.

The only way out is through. Reflect sunlight, enhance weathering, expand solar supply.

It's hard to believe it's been less than two years and nine months since we first announced Northwood as a small team of six. Today we are announcing a $375M Series C.

Griffin, Shaur, and I founded the company on the premise that the demand for data through space would grow exponentially and the industry needed a fundamentally new approach to ground infrastructure to support that. We are still early innings in this story and grateful for our capital partners joining in this next chapter.
