Inversion was founded in 2021 by Justin Fiaschetti and Austin Briggs with the mission to build the first affordable, high cadence return capability for the commercial and defense space industries.
With launching to space becoming cheap and frequent, comparable options for return must become available to allow for a robust economy in space. We believe in a future where returning from space is as common as launching to space. Inversion is building reentry vehicles faster and cheaper than ever before through a focus on simplicity.
