* 10X faster iteration
* entirely 3D printed
Relativity is creating the first autonomous rocket factory.
Their long-term goal is the 3D printing the first rocket made from Mars.
Relativity is creating the rocket factory of the future:
An entirely 3D printed rocket
A proprietary building-sized metal 3D printer – Stargate
Intelligent hardware + software
Robotic automation enabled by low part count
Complete printing of our rocket, Terran 1, reduces vehicle part count from nearly 100,000 to under 1,000 components – and is the first step toward an entirely autonomous factory.
They are accelerating the design process by removing barriers between the digital and physical worlds.
