This covers a wide range of potential subjects, including human space flight and orbital operations. The University is a partner of choice for this, as it is the only college housing a National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)-funded laboratory for the development of space suits.
Two days later, Voyager divulged that it had been awarded a contract by the Air Force Research Laboratory to develop next-generation intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (IRS) systems. Adding more juice to the announcement of the $21 million program, Voyager said these platforms would be enhanced by artificial intelligence (AI), a still-hot technology that excites investors.
A fine combination
Voyager is clearly capitalizing on its opportunities as a company at the intersection of cutting-edge technology and current defense sector demand. It wouldn't surprise me if the company were to announce subsequent, beneficial research partnerships or multi-million-dollar projects for the U.S. military. This is unquestionably a defense and space stock worth watching these days.
