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!
Named after 3.4-million-year-old human fossil, Lucy will be the first spacecraft to visit Jupiter’s Trojan asteroids. These asteroids are important to study because they will give us critical insight to the early solar system, just like Lucy gave us insight into early Earth! Set to launch on October 16, Lucy
This past Wednesday was Greenpeace Day, a day dedicated to highlighting activism in the name of the environment. To celebrate, we wanted to share some resources you can interact with to understand more about the climate, wildfires, and earth monitoring satellites! NASA’s Share the Science page gives you software you
As astronauts voyage deeper into space, communication from Earth will be delayed, making autonomy crucial for mission success. Researchers from the NASA Advanced Exploration Systems Team devised a clever solution to increase the work an astronaut can do without direct interaction with Earth. With the use of Microsoft HoloLens, astronauts
