Vision & direction
Rocket System & Propulsion Program Owner
APEX is building the foundation for affordable, reliable launch systems through hands-on engineering, hardware development and continuous iteration.
APEX describes its prototype as a step toward a broader vision of making access to space more accessible.
APEX owns
- Propulsion. Engine architecture, requirements and hardware.
- Mission requirements. What the vehicle must do, and for whom.
- System architecture. How the subsystems fit together.
- Integration. Integration authority across partners.
- Test objectives. What each test must prove.
- Configuration. The hardware, firmware and software baselines.
- Engineering decisions. Design choices and trade-offs.
- Acceptance. Whether evidence is good enough.
Ecosystem partners contribute
