Rocket engines make up 80% of the time and cost that go into a new vehicle. The modern rocket engine has thousands of components, utilizes a dangerous combination of chemicals, cost hundreds of millions of dollars to develop, take years to design, and still regularly fail. Firehawk Aerospace has created a rocket engine that can be custom designed in 4 to 6 months, is 1/5th the price of a competitor engine, is nearly environmentally benign, and has a ZERO TNT Equivalency (it will not explode). We are uniquely positioned to become a leader in the commercial industry due to our safety and low cost as well as the defense industry because our rocket engine can throttle down to 10%, turn off, and restart mid-flght. This is an incredible breakthrough for solid rocket fuel. To date Firehawk Aerospace's technology has been issued 5 U.S. patents, conducted 31 hot fire engine tests, and has signed a SPACE ACT AGREEMENT with NASA to occupy a testing facility to conduct more tests.

As the internet grew, it became easier and easier to meet new people and keep in touch with everyone we know. Along the way, our closest relationships got lost in the sea of connectivity. We started Cocoon because it felt like there was a missing space on our phones. A "social" app where we could be introverts. A private and cozy corner to hang out with people we already know and love and don’t get to see much in person. A place to gather our faraway family members, friends-for-life, and tight-knit groups, and keep them close to heart. We knew they deserved something special instead of generic, so that’s what we set out to build.
