“Sunday morning marked a defining moment in both our company’s journey and the future of commercial space exploration as our industry celebrates this successful Moon landing,” said Bill Hollister, president of Aegis Aerospace. “RAC will gather crucial data on the Moon’s surface to test, improve and safeguard future spacecraft, spacesuits and habitats from the detrimental effects of regolith.”
