==Investment Interview<ref name=":0" />== '''Explain what your venture does.''' We are using the advantages inherent of smaller scale launch vehicles, along with largely understood technologies, to develop a fully-reusable launch vehicle to provide much lower cost and much higher frequency launch capability to the growing small satellite market. In the near term, this involves creating a prototype reusable rocket motor ideally suited for this scale vehicle. This rocket motor technology, once proven, may additionally be sold to other interested parties to help fund development of the full vehicle. '''What stage is your business?''' We are at a pre-seed stage and are currently looking to raise funding to create a prototype reusable rocket motor, this is being done through a combination of research grants and private equity. '''Explain the ownership structure of your company.''' The company is owned equally by the founding members. '''How many employees do you have?''' * Eddie: CEO and engineer * Kieran: COO, CFO and engineer * Rafal: CTO and engineer '''Explain the core technologies and/or service propositions of your venture.''' The key proposition put forward by Astron Systems is a fully reusable launch vehicle capable of delivering low cost and high frequency space access to the rapidly growing small satellite market. There are two key technologies in the vehicle which make this possible - The small methane and liquid oxygen rocket motor optimised for reusability and the reusable re-entry and recovery system. The recovery system takes advantage of the smaller scale nature of the launch vehicle and recovers the vehicle using parafoils to slow down each stage and a helicopter to retrieve.
