The first space delivery vehicle.

Los Angeles-based aerospace startup Inversion unveiled its most ambitious ship yet, the Arc, the first space delivery vehicle designed to transport cargo from orbit directly to any point on the planet in less than 60 minutes.

The project revealed during an event at the company's factory marks a turning point in global logistics; for the first time, a reentry ship promises to unite the speed of space with the precision of a drone, allowing everything from the delivery of emergency medical kits to strategic defense components.

At 2.4 meters high and 1.20 meters wide, the Arc is about the size of a large table and weighs just over 200kg. It can carry up to 227 kg of payload and was built to remain in orbit for up to 5 years, waiting for the reentry order. When activated, the Arc re-enters the atmosphere at hypersonic speeds and is capable of sailing up to 1000 km during descent, controlling its trajectory like an aircraft on wings.

The landing is carried out using precision parachutes, without the need for runways or landing infrastructure. This autonomy is essential in military and humanitarian operations, allowing the Arc to deliver supplies directly to conflict zones, remote islands or areas affected by natural disasters, without depending on airports or ground infrastructure.

Furthermore, by using propulsion with non-toxic materials, it can be handled immediately after landing, without chemical risk or the need for protective equipment. The Arc is an evolution of the Ray demonstration ship launched by Inversion in 2024 in collaboration with SpaceX.

The Ray model served to validate the propulsion, solar energy and orbital control systems, but was not capable of returning to Earth. With 60 engineers and the first test flight planned for 2026, Inversion is betting that its technology will be able to redefine the way critical goods are transported around the planet, transforming space into a true link in the global logistics chain.
