Vega Aerospace

Vega Aerospace is an American privately funded aerospace manufacturer and spaceflight services company headquartered in Victorville, California. Founded in 2001 by Alexander Monroe, the company aims to lessen the expenses of space travel and create more reliable reusable launch vehicles and spacecraft. Vega has become a primer space transportation asset for the United States since its foundation. The company motto is Ad Astra Per Aspera, or Latin for "to the stars through hardships." Vega has developed a variety of technologies, with a focus on non-rocket launches, single-stage-to-orbit (SSTO) vehicles for access to suborbital and orbital space, as well as, new spacecraft propulsion systems including superluminal transportation.

The company's name refers to the star Vega, former northern pole star for the planet Earth and will be again in another 12,000 years.

In 2019, the company sent the first human expedition to the planet Saturn using newly developed NERVA propulsion systems.

Also in 2019, the company became embroiled in a scandal involving government money allocated to study pseudoscientific and ultrascientific phenomenon.

In 2021, the company announced that it will be launching its starship Pegasus on the first-ever crewed expedition of interstellar space.

Scientific Exploration Vehicles (SEVs)
''SEVs each carry astronaut crews of four. Each crew is signed up for at least an one-year term of space exploration. It takes approximately three years to design and build a current-generation SEV. The Pegasus has been the only exception as the turnaround from order to launch was five years.''
