“Ryan is an integral part of the Sidus Space team. Since the near-decade we’ve been working together, Ryan is accomplished beyond his years, having successfully developed and launched our EFPT™, managing the design, fabrication, and test of the Orion Crew Capsule Mini Lift Station, and will play a significant role in the launch services for multiple LizzieSat™ satellite deployments with SpaceX,” said Founder and CEO of Sidus Space Carol Craig. “At Sidus, it’s important for us to invest in young talent and Ryan’s continued passion for the industry and ability to embrace opportunities showed my team the importance of having this up-and-coming leader join our staff.”
