What could be cooler than what we get to do?!
Red Canyon develops cutting-edge technology to help humankind explore space and other planets, as well as advanced renewable resources on Earth and the rejuvenation of low-income areas through the HUBZone program. We are proud to be involved with important missions ranging from exploring the poles of Jupiter, the next Mars lander, bringing back the first sample from an asteroid, and building the next human spacecraft to go to the Moon and Mars!
Our clients include government agencies such as NASA, NREL, NOAA, and DOD, in addition to customers such as Lockheed Martin Space, Raytheon, Sierra Space, a.i. solutions, Walt Disney Imagineering, SAIC, Ball Aerospace, SpaceX, Honeywell, KBRwyle, Maxar, Blue Origin, and Moog.
The stars of our mission at the Castle and beyond!
We attract ambitious engineers who are at the top of their field. Our engineers are passionate about their professions and do not view work as just “jobs”. We work hard, enjoy life, and try to minimize politics in the workplace. In all we do, we inspire enthusiasm, encourage commitment, and enjoy the moment.
Stardust was the first spacecraft to return a cometary sample and extraterrestrial material from outside the orbit of the Moon to Earth.
NASA’s OSIRIS-REx is the first U.S. mission to successfully collect a sample from an asteroid. On Oct. 20, 2020, the spacecraft briefly touched down on Bennu, an asteroid more than 200 million miles (321 million kilometers) from Earth, and grabbed dust and rocks from a sample site called Nightingale.
With the Artemis program, NASA will land the first woman and next man on the Moon by 2024, using innovative technologies to explore more of the lunar surface than ever before. We will collaborate with our commercial and international partners and establish sustainable exploration by the end of the decade.
Out of this world achievements and eventS!
While OSIRIS-REx is still traveling through space with a much-anticipated arrival date of September 24th, NASA is preparing for its return and hosting the first asteroid sample recovery rehearsal to media June 27th and June 28th. This will be held at Lockheed Martin Space in Littleton, Colorado, and will perform
This May, NASA announced that they are looking to update its current Lunar Terrain Vehicle (LTV) so astronauts on Artemis and engineers remotely can use the LTV to explore the lunar South Pole! NASA anticipates the LTV to be operational by astronauts in 2029, but they first aim to utilize
At Red Canyon, passion for aerospace surrounds us, and it could not shine brighter than one of our female engineers, Caroline Chouinard. The infinite sky was love at first sight for Caroline Chouinard when she saw her first meteor shower as a child. In 2001, she began her own
