Space Solutions www.dynetics.com Our mission matters because our customers’ missions matter Dynetics facilities and processes provide flexible flight hardware development from low-cost prototypes through complete human-rated solutions. Our facilities are tailored to space systems design and development, low-volume production, hardware integration, and mechanical and propulsion testing. Dynetics provides systems engineering, assembly, integration, test, operations We deliver superior quality, high- and program management support across all system elements. technology services and products ▪ Human-rated mechanical components ethically, responsively, ▪ Build-to-print assemblies ▪ Large aerospace structures and cost-effectively. Large capabilities with the agility of a small business System integration and assembly Dynetics opened its new Aerospace Structures Complex in Decatur, Alabama. The new facility brings a capability to North Alabama to support the development, integration, Providing support across and structural testing of large aerospace structures. The all system elements facility is a multi-use facility that will serve NASA, DoD and commercial customers. Initially, Dynetics will use the facility to build the NASA Space Launch System’s Universal Stage Adapter and to perform structural qualification testing for United Launch Alliance’s Vulcan Centaur booster. The complex has three facilities: Test Stand 1, Test Control Center, and the Hardware Integration Facility. The Test Stand 1 is 60 feet long, The 4,000 square foot Test The Hardware Integration 60 feet wide, and 100 feet high Control Center offers customers Facility allows for the assembly with the capability to hoist 35 the capability to view tests and of large aerospace structures tons. It will support structural analyze real-time data onsite. and houses test cells. Within qualification testing. the 43,000 square foot facility, the integration high bay is 15,000 square feet. Propulsion systems Innovative, responsive, and affordable propulsion solutions from subcomponent to full system Our expertise in design, systems engineering, manufacturing, and test provides our customers with full-spectrum support and the agility to adapt to changing requirements to meet hardware needs. We provide propulsion systems for: ▪ Launch vehicles ▪ Missile systems ▪ Spacecraft Dynetics provides the following: ▪ Design ▪ Test ▪ Analysis ▪ Prototyping ▪ Systems engineering ▪ Low-volume ▪ Integration production We have experience with most rocket propellants, including: ▪ Liquid and gaseous oxygen, methane and hydrogen ▪ Propane and ethane ▪ Nitrous oxide and hydrogen peroxide ▪ HTPB and various solid and hybrid fuels ▪ HAN (AF-315E) and Hydrazine Lunar Systems Astrobotic selected Dynetics as the propulsion provider for the Peregrine lunar lander, which will begin delivering customer payloads to the moon beginning in 2021. Dynetics will integrate Peregrine’s main engines and attitude control thrusters, controller electronics, tanks, and feed system to perform all propulsive maneuvers. Dynetics and Maxar Technologies signed a teaming agreement to build and demonstrate the power and propulsion element for the Gateway, a crucial component of NASA’s Artemis lunar exploration program. This mission is slated for launch by the end of 2022. It will provide power, maneuvering, attitude control, communications systems, and initial docking capabilities for the Gateway. NASA selected Dynetics to study and build five prototypes for an element of a new human lunar lander. NASA’s Artemis program will include the development of a new human landing system to send astronauts back to the lunar surface by 2024. We are providing the knowledge and technical expertise to help further missions to the Moon and beyond.
