About The US Space Industry Review

Dedicated to comprehensive analysis of America's space ecosystem

Our Mission

The US Space Industry Review was founded in 2019 by a group of aerospace professionals, policy analysts, and former NASA engineers who recognized the need for independent, rigorous analysis of America's rapidly evolving space sector.

Our mission is to provide decision-makers, researchers, and space professionals with comprehensive, data-driven insights into the technological, economic, and strategic dimensions of U.S. space activities.

We examine government programs, commercial ventures, regulatory frameworks, and technological innovations with an emphasis on accuracy, context, and strategic implications. Our work serves as a trusted resource for aerospace executives, policymakers, investors, and academics seeking to understand the complexities of modern spaceflight.
