Here at The Exploration Company, we are developing, producing, and operating Nyx, a modular and reusable space orbital vehicle that can eventually be refuelled in orbit and that can carry cargo - and potentially humans in the longer run.

• Build and assemble skids and subsystems for an acceptance test bench

• Support assembly and integration of test articles

• Participate in the complete life cycle of a test bench, from design, to assembly and active testing
