Space infrastructure conglomerate @RedwireSpace debuted on the NYSE this morning, the 6th space #SPAC to close this year.

"We are a revenue positive, cash flow positive, very financially conservative and rapidly growing company" - $RDW CEO Peter Cannito cnbc.com/2021/09/03/spa…
@RedwireSpace Cannito emphasized that $RDW is a "uniquely positioned" option for investors like @CathieDWood's $ARKX, since it’s a pure-play space stock that's generating over $100 million in revenue a year and cash flow positive already.

Scoop – Jeff Bezos launched into space last month, but Blue Origin has had top talent leave since he returned to Earth, CNBC has learned.

At least 11 key employees have left this summer, including an SVP, program leaders, and multiple senior engineers: cnbc.com/2021/08/20/jef…
Company spokesperson:

“Blue Origin grew by 850 people in 2020 and we have grown by another 650 so far in 2021. In fact, we’ve grown by nearly a factor of four over the past three years."
cnbc.com/2021/08/20/jef…
Notably, Blue Origin gave full-time employees a $10,000 bonus on July 30, sources said – which the company intended as a "thank you," but sources say it internally was perceived as leadership attempting to entice talent to stay amid the NASA HLS fight.
