Stoke Space, a rocket startup based in Kent, is targeting an early 2027 launch for its fully reusable Nova Pathfinder vehicle. The company is making progress with final ground qualifications at its test site in Moses Lake, Washington. Stoke Space has raised a total of $2.3 billion, including a recent $1 billion in Series E funding. Currently, the company is conducting structural and engine tests at the Moses Lake Test Site before preparing to ship hardware to Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida. Recently, NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman and his team visited the facility to observe hot-fire tests of the Andromeda and Zenith engines as these powerplants conclude their qualification campaigns.
