"Together, we will go far"
The images chosen show the great moments in the history of the conquest of space but also of natural disasters resulting from climate change. “Together, we will go far, ensures the voice over of the video. We will take care of each other and solve problems together ”. Privateer Space believes that space exploration is neither "a race" nor "a competition".
The company invites viewers of the video to see themselves as "a planet" and not as "a person, a company, a nation" and no longer see the sky as a limit.
“Let's take care of what we have so the next generation can be better together,” adds the voiceover.
On its website, Privateer Space explains that it is "in a stealth configuration".
However, the newcomer's business sector is highly competitive, as there are already companies from Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk and Richard Branson, among others.
