About us
Based in Hawthorne, California, Phase Four is enabling the exponential growth of satellite constellations by solving the satellite’s costliest problem, the propulsion system. By eliminating the most common failure points in legacy technologies – electrodes, high-voltage electronics, and complex fabrication – Phase Four has built a system that offers reliable high performance with baked-in manufacturability. Our systems provide Hall Effect Thruster performance at a fraction of the price and delivery timeline, with nearly double the lifespan. Check out our open positions at at www.phasefour.io/careers if you have interest in joining our mission.

We are pleased and humbled to be a mission partner with the Defense Advanced Research Project Agency to unlock sustained very low-earth orbit space operations. This is truly ground-breaking stuff that will have enormous implications to US national security and to the commercial sector. We look forward to proving our VLEO propulsion system in an on-orbit operational demonstration, and unlocking this uncrowded, highly valuable orbital regime! #DARPA #USSF #USSPACECOM #SSC #Space #spacerco #NASA #NSS #SDA https://lnkd.in/erh3E7cA

As we get ready to go into the Christmas weekend, Phase Four hit an important milestone we'd like to share--our propulsion systems clocked 5,000 days in operational orbit! We're beyond delighted with the rapid progress our radio-frequency thrusters--our current production run of Maxwell propulsion systems are delivering Hall Effect thruster capabilities at a fraction of the price and delivery time. It's a great time to be in the space vertical. We wish everyone a very Happy Holidays! #SDA #space #innovation #satellites #constellation

Cost of xenon per kg, 2023: $10,000 Cost of nitrous per kg, 2023: $22 If you are a satellite constellation operator using xenon as a propellant, how would you do things differently if your propellant costs dropped 99.8%? Phase Four suggests all satellite builders and operators start thinking about that now...we're changing the way things move in space. www.phasefour.io #innovation #spacepropulsion #satellite #space #SDA #leo #disruption
