Iss World Jobs in Texas (NOW HIRING)

Company Description
Nanoracks is an entrepreneurial aerospace company focusing on providing commercial access to space, currently on the International Space Station (ISS), suborbital vehicles, India's Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle, and more! The company, which was once tagged as the "UPS of Space", has sent nearly 1,000 payloads to the Space Station. Nanoracks kickstarted the CubeSat deployment revolution and has deployed over 250 to date.
Since 2009, Nanoracks has created and expanded new in-space markets and has been the world leader for ushering in a new era of in-space services. Currently, Nanoracks is working to build commercial space stations ("Outposts") from the spent upper stages of launch vehicles in orbit. This technology will enable spent upper stages to be used as crewed and un-crewed space stations for various purposes and customers-both civil and commercial.
Nanoracks will provide and facilitate an ecosystem of interoperable technologies and distributed free flying space stations. The commercial approach to this effort is described in NanoRacks' LEO Commercialization Study, available online here: http://nanoracks.com/nanoracks-leocom-study-release/.
Nanoracks prides itself on being the first commercial space station company with customers - customers that come from 30+ nations around the world.
