Beal Aerospace Technologies Inc
Beal Aerospace Technologies, founded by Andrew Beal in 1997, was a pioneering aerospace company based in Frisco, TX, with a focus on building rockets for placing communications satellites in orbit. Their innovative three-stage rocket, powered by hydrogen peroxide and kerosene, made headlines with the successful testing of the BA-810 Stage 2 engine in 2000, marking a significant milestone in private space exploration. Despite the company's closure in 2000 due to competition from NASA's subsidized programs, Beal Aerospace's legacy lives on as a testament to the challenges faced by private-sector space ventures. The evolving relationship between Beal Aerospace and NASA reflects the shifting landscape of space exploration, with NASA now supporting private-sector companies in the pursuit of innovative space technologies.Generated from the website
