Momentus has now deployed seven of ten customer payloads from its Vigoride tug
Capitalism in space: Despite technical communications issues after deployment of the first test flight of its Vigoride orbital tug, Momentus yesterday announced that has now deployed seven of ten customer payloads.
This announcement is somewhat of a surprise, as in June the company had said it would not be able to deploy anymore payloads due to the communications and solar panel problems Vigoride was experiencing.
The update also noted that the company is incorporating changes in its next Vigoride tug, scheduled to launch in November.
