RDW - 3 Ways to Invest in America's Brand-New Space Station
Just shy of one year ago, the Jeff Bezos space company Blue Origin dropped a bombshell .
To date, the rising space tourism star hasn't done much more than carry a couple dozen celebrities and high-net-worth individuals to the edge of space and back -- and has yet to put so much as a satellite in actual orbit. But working in cooperation with privately held Sierra Space, tiny space start-up Redwire (NYSE: RDW) , and aerospace giant Boeing (NYSE: BA) as well, Blue Origin intends to form a new company called Orbital Reef -- and build a whole space station in orbit to help replace the aging International Space Station (ISS).
Eleven months later, this project took a step forward when NASA confirmed last month that Orbital Reef passed a system definition review. The agency also authorized the companies to proceed with design work on the station -- and to keep collecting on NASA's $130 million Commercial Low Earth Orbit Destinations, or CLD, contract for this work.
