Long Beach facility expands the company’s ability to capture the significant demand signal across civil, national security and commercial space missions.

Voyager Technologies announced a new facility in Long Beach, California – widely known as “Space Beach” – to expand the company’s ability to capture the significant demand signal across civil, national security and commercial space missions.

"We are standing up capacity at Space Beach for one purpose: to deliver for our customers," said Matt Magaña, president, Space, Defense & National Security, Voyager. "We are moving fast from design to build, test and fielded capability, and this facility gives us access to world-class talent, a proven aerospace ecosystem and the collaborative energy of companies that are all pushing in the same direction.”

Voyager is actively collaborating with leading Space Beach companies, including Anduril Industries and True Anomaly, to meet customers’ rapidly growing needs. The new facility will support the development and production of technologies spanning advanced electronics and mission hardware, AI-enabled software and embedded systems, space infrastructure for LEO, lunar and deep space missions, next-generation propulsion and defense systems and integrated sensing, communications and autonomy technologies. By compressing design cycles through AI-driven digital engineering and automated manufacturing, Voyager is positioned to rapidly move from concept to fielded capability, delivering hardware and systems at the speed national security demands.

“We’re proud to welcome Voyager to our growing Space Beach ecosystem with a 140,000-square-foot facility advancing aerospace innovation, domestic manufacturing, and national security capabilities,” said Mayor Rex Richardson. “This investment brings high-skilled jobs, strengthens our local economy, and further establishes Long Beach as a national hub for the industries shaping our future.”

Long Beach has emerged as a national center of gravity for aerospace innovation, home to a rapidly growing network of space and defense companies, advanced manufacturers and engineering talent. The facility reinforces the city’s role, supporting supply chain resilience, domestic manufacturing and high-skilled job creation.
