## Resource

A California-based startup, Innova Product Development, is set to play a pivotal role in NASA’s Artemis moon missions after being tapped by a NASA contractor to build two critical subsystems for a lunar rover. Founded nearly two decades ago to serve medical and aviation industries, the company’s consistent quality work paved the way for this cosmic leap. Founder Cameron Spangler, surprised by the moon mission opportunity, credits the company’s mission-driven ethos for getting them here. Their systems — a communication hub and a fail-safe controller — will keep the rover operational in lunar conditions. With a 2028 launch target, Innova is hiring three new engineers and aims to witness history firsthand as humanity returns to the moon.
