## Resource

Private space startups True Anomaly and Rocket Lab just pulled off a jaw-dropping orbital feat: their satellites met in space, with one snapping photos of the other — a major leap for U.S. Space Force surveillance. In under 17 hours, Rocket Lab launched Puma, while True Anomaly’s Jackal, already in orbit, tracked it from 2,000 km away. This “Victus Haze” mission, hailed as the most complex private rendezvous ever outside NASA or human missions, proves how fast and precise commercial space can become. With more maneuvers on the horizon — including potential evasive actions and inspections — these companies are building the agile, responsive space capabilities the U.S. military desperately needs. True Anomaly, backed by ex-military space experts and major funding, is now a top contender for Space Force contracts.
