Rocket Lab is acquiring a Colorado-based space software company called Advanced Solutions, Inc (ASI) for $40 million, with as much as $5.5 million in additional performance-based earnouts also available based on the company’s 2021 calendar year performance. ASI’s expertise lies in flight software for spacecraft, including guidance, navigation and control (GNC) offerings, as well as mission simulation and test software. It’s meant to help Rocket Lab build out its Space Systems division and round out its efforts to become a true ‘end-to-end’ space company.
