What the current evidence supports
Human editorial judgment · 2026-06-28
Track; not yet
- Why
- The RAFTI interface is genuinely mature (TRL-8, $30K, shipping), but the RAVEN/NEST network itself is a 2030 concept with no hardware, undisclosed specs, slipping precursor demos, and very high fuel pricing.
- Next
- Track completion of the first operational GEO refueling (Tetra-5, now June 2026) and any RAVEN/NEST hardware milestone before assuming a usable on-orbit fuel network exists
