Astra Space, Inc.

Astra Space, Inc. (Nasdaq: ASTR) completed its business combination with Holicity, Inc. in July 2021, taking the small satellite launch vehicle developer public through a de-SPAC transaction. Holicity, which conducted its IPO in 2020, was sponsored by Holicity Holdings LLC, backed by Craig McCaw. The 8-K filed July 1, 2021 corresponds to disclosures surrounding the closing of that combination. Astra operated in the commercial space launch sector, targeting the small payload orbital delivery market, but subsequently faced significant operational setbacks, suspended launch vehicle development in 2022, and shifted strategic focus before effectively winding down its rocket business.
