About

Australian startup that flew the Meggs Jr. demonstrator and is building a larger small-satellite rocket for 2027.

Sunburnt Space Co is an aerospace startup developing small-lift launch vehicles to provide dedicated orbital access from Australian soil. The company focuses on building affordable, sustainable rockets tailored for deploying commercial nanosatellites and academic payloads into low Earth orbit.

The firm tests its avionics, propulsion and recovery architectures through suborbital sounding rockets, having successfully flown its Meggs Jr. technology demonstrator. Data from these early suborbital hops is feeding directly into the design of a larger, orbital-class launch vehicle, which the company aims to field by 2027. The startup targets the growing domestic space ecosystem, aiming to reduce Australia's reliance on foreign launch providers.

Operating as an early-stage hardware developer, the company is headquartered in Australia and focuses on establishing a sovereign commercial launch capability for the region.
