The team behind every mission.
With around 100 employees, Virginia Space maintains the MARS launch pads and facilities between missions and serves as an essential and integrated part of the operational ground crew for its customers. The operations-forward workforce consists of engineers, technicians, operators, inspectors, logisticians, and support staff with strong experience in construction, project management, security, and safety. The highly trained staff can operate the launch pads for our customers, thereby reducing the number of personnel the launch vehicle or space vehicle customers need to deploy for each mission. Virginia Space reports to and is governed by its Board of Directors (the Board).
