About
Discover a whole new type of Space Ship! Since 2018, space-offshore.com has been delivering highly specialized technical news and comprehensive coverage of commercial vessels in the global spaceflight industry.
The industry, initially shaped by the pioneering work of SpaceX, has seen expansion with the entry of more commercial players. These bespoke and specialized vessels have a unique role in the maritime industry as they retrieve hardware – and Astronauts – fresh from a trip to space!
Space-offshore.com is a spaceflight community fan resource website. This site is not affiliated with SpaceX, any other commercial company, or maritime providers.
About the Editor
Gav Cornwell (@SpaceOffshore)
Since 2017, I’ve been dedicated to tracking offshore spaceflight operations worldwide via social media. The shift towards reusable rocket designs by commercial launch providers has led to an increasing need for offshore operations. I began posting primarily about SpaceX and have expanded my output further as competitors arrive.
I founded SpaceXFleet.com to provide information about SpaceX’s growing fleet of ships. In the 5 years from then, a multitude of other launch providers have been establishing their own vessel fleets for their operations, prompting me to rebrand the site while maintaining the original goal of providing valuable information. Join me in supporting my coverage here!
