New space startup Lux Aeterna wants to make satellites reusable


Lux Aeterna, a Denver-based startup, is working on a reusable satellite that has attracted $4 million in pre-seeding funding from investors.

Founder and CEO Brian Taylor said the idea for Lux Aeterna came to him last year while he watched his former employer, SpaceX, launch one of its Starship test vehicles into space.

He previously worked at The Verge, where he also covered consumer technology, hosted many short- and long-form videos, performed product and editorial photography, and once nearly passed out in a Red Bull Air Race plane.
