We believe future launch vehicles should be designed for sustainability. Every launch should be affordable, environmentally friendly and safe.
Perigee launch vehicles are equipped with efficient rocket engines, lightweight carbon composite tanks and custom-built avionics.
This enables the Blue Whales to be the smallest and lightest launch vehicles ever built, consuming minimal amount of propellant per kilogram of payload.
We first started developing the most reliable and yet the most efficient rocket engines in the world since 2018.
Both the main and the upper stage engines of the Blue Whale 1 are fueled with liquid natural gas for the highest performance per kilogram of total carbon emission.
As a result, Skyblue upper stage engine is the most efficient rocket engine ever built for micro launchers,
with a combustion efficiency exceeding 97%, and a vacuum specific impulse of more than 360 seconds.
They are also the lightest of their kinds. The Skyblue is just 10 kg including all sensors, actuators, valves and a nozzle extension.
Despite the low margin for mass and efficiency, Perigee's engines are powering many test vehicle programs with zero failure to date.
