About Impulse Space

Founded in 2021 by
Tom Mueller, a founding member of SpaceX.

Impulse Space was founded with the belief that gaining access to space is only part of the job - if you want to get to orbit, you'll go with one of our launch partners, but if you want to get anywhere else in space, Impulse will take you there.

Our mission is to _accelerate humanity's future in space through efficient transportation _
_anywhere_. GEO, the Moon, Mars, and beyond; Impulse is the way to get anywhere in space.

We'll do this with Helios, a powerful kick stage that will bring large payloads from LEO to GEO & beyond, and Mira, a hosting and orbital transfer vehicle that is optimized to make the trip to and operate in GEO.
