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 Nevada Corporation, 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!
In a 2005 – 2019 study by NASA and NOAA, scientist has found that the amount of heat energy Earth trapped has doubled in that time. Greenhouse gasses like carbon dioxide and methane have caused the heat to be transferred into the sea rather than escaping into space. This increases
While studying the largest planet in our solar system, on June 7, the Juno spacecraft passed by the largest moon in the solar system, Ganymede. Not only is Ganymede bigger than the planet Mercury, but it is the only moon in our solar system to have a magnetosphere. Juno provided
How can exploring other planets help improve our own? By the end of the decade, NASA will send two spacecraft to Venus. One craft will examine how the planet gained such a thick and hot atmosphere. The second craft will map the geography and observe any geological activity that may
