                Why Solar System Express was started...

                Company Overview

                Commercial space companies and future explorers will need navigation software, advanced robotic control systems, and new space hardened hardware architecture. Solar System Express (Sol-X) fills that role by designing simple reconfigurable systems. Our embedded systems will increase the safety and productivity of manned space missions, helping make manned space missions more affordable. But every great adventure starts at home. Sol-X will enable space settlement, via increased human capability on Earth as our technology solves real world problems with clear space spin-offs.

                Solar System Express technology will be used on Earth first. From teaching and creating educational games for children, to enabling low cost innovation in garages and fueling imagination around the world. The incredible market power of Earth's numerous developing countries has yet to be tapped. Individually they may be a weak market; however, the vast number of them opens endless possibilities. Sol-X imagines a future where our products help businesses from every nation work and explore in space, and a world that does not define its countries.  

                Solar System Express Supports 4K for Cancer

                Picture

                Join Solar System Express in our support of 4K for Cancer. This summer, Ami Kumordzie, COO of Sol-X, will take a 4,000-mile bicycle ride from Baltimore, Maryland to Portland, Oregon. Her mission is to raise awareness, unite communities, and foster hope in the fight against cancer. In order to do this, she will engage in cancer education programs and visit cancer patients at hospitals, cancer centers and hospices throughout each phase of her seventy (70) day ride.
                           


                SolX is proud to contribute to this great cause. Please read more about Ami's mission and find out about how you can donate at: http://4kforcancer.org/profiles/ami-kumordzie/
