Zeno Power

I'm humbled and excited to be appointed to NOAA's new Advisory Committee on Excellence in Space to represent Zeno Power and provide recommendations on space nuclear policy and other commercial space issues

We joined experts from DOE Office of Environmental Management, United States Department of Defense, & U.S. Department of Energy - Oak Ridge Office of Environmental Management visiting our partner Westinghouse Electric Company’s radiological facility last week for a tour, highlighting the progress we’ve made towards revitalizing the legacy Sr-90 we received earlier this year from the DOE into novel heat sources for our first radioisotope power systems.

We're proud to work with an array of U.S. government agencies as we build and deploy radioisotope power systems from the seabed to the lunar surface: 🌊 Enabling seabed operations for the US Navy 🚀 Providing enduring power for space applications with NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration & United States Space Force ♻️ Revitalizing nuclear waste material with U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) & U.S. Department of Energy - Oak Ridge Office of Environmental Management

We're building the first commercial radioisotope power systems — bringing reliable energy to frontier environments from the seabed to the lunar surface.

Last week, our Seattle and DC teams gathered in George, WA for our annual team off-site! Some highlights: 🦺 Safety activities 🚀 Company strategy session 🧘♀️ Mindfulness activities 🏅 Team olympics 🧥 Patch Jacket ceremony   It was a meaningful few days for our growing team to get to know each other, celebrate our progress over the last year, and prepare for the significant work that lies ahead!   And we're still hiring. See our current openings & apply to join the Zeno team: https://lnkd.in/gh4Y2jBM

Surviving & operating through the lunar night is today's top space technology gap, according to a newly-released NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration survey of 1,200 industry experts ranking 187 technological challenges.   We're excited to be solving that problem head-on, working with NASA to bring next-generation radioisotope power systems to market — enabling missions in the Artemis program and beyond to survive the lunar night and operate for months, or even years, on end. https://lnkd.in/grB8V69N

We're thrilled to welcome Jasmine Damon, our new Director of People & Culture! 🚀 Jasmine is based in Seattle and has 10+ years of experience in HR, recruitment, and people operations at tech and aerospace companies including BlackSky and Intelligent Waves.   Welcome to Zeno, Jasmine! We can't wait for your leadership in growing our team and culture to help us unleash a new era of reliable, sustainable power.

The lunar night is treacherous: two weeks of darkness and temperatures as low as -250 C. Current robotic missions plan to survive for up to two weeks before freezing to death during the lunar night. We’re working with Intuitive Machines to solve that: building radioisotope power systems that enable future missions to survive, operate, and thrive during the lunar night — for months, or years, on end. These technologies will provide the foundation for NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration's Artemis program to establish a sustainable presence on the lunar surface — paving the pathway to Mars.

We’re commercializing radioisotope power systems to bring sustainable, resilient power to frontier regions – from the seabed to the lunar surface. Follow us on X for updates on our progress & team, industry news, & more: x.com/zeno_power
