This update follows news that Firefly Aerospace Founder Max Polyakov sold his 58% stake in Firefly to Tom for $1. It was thought that Max’s departure from Firefly was with a mutual understanding between him and the U.S. Government, but it appears that was incorrect. In any case, Firefly plans to return to Vandenberg soon for their second flight and they are currently working on at least two additional vehicles that should launch later this year.
We here at Space Explored can’t wait to see Firefly back on the launch pad and wish everyone there the best of luck with their second attempt!
