Relativity Space focuses on producing and launching 3D printed reusable rockets, catering to the growing demand for space infrastructure. Their main product, the Terran R, is designed to launch various payloads into space, including satellites and future manned missions. The rockets are made using advanced 3D printing techniques, which simplify the manufacturing process, lower costs, and reduce production time. This approach allows Relativity Space to offer a competitive alternative in the aerospace market. Unlike traditional rocket manufacturers, their emphasis on reusability and innovative designs sets them apart. The company's goal is to provide efficient and cost-effective launch services, as demonstrated by their successful launch of Terran 1, the largest 3D printed object, into space.
