bluShift Aerospace, Inc. is an American private company located in Brunswick, ME. The firm operates as an aerospace firm that develops suborbital sounding and small-lift orbital rockets. It was founded in 2014 by Sascha Deri, he has been the CEO since the inception date. The company says this about itself: On January 31, 2021, bluShift Aerospace made history when it launched the first commercial rocket in the world powered by eco-friendly, bio-derived fuel from Loring Commerce Centre in Limestone, Maine. Founded in 2014, bluShift has designed a bio-derived rocket fuel and a modular hybrid rocket engine, and is working toward a small rocket that can lift 30-kilogram payloads to low-Earth orbit. This new launch system will dramatically reduce the environmental impact, cost, and wait times of current cubesat (miniature satellite) launch services. By launching rockets to polar orbit from coastal Maine, bluShift plans to create over 50 aerospace jobs in the next five years and bring revenue from the rapidly growing cubesat launch market into the state. bluShift Aerospace is headquartered at Hangar 6, at Brunswick Landing.
