Culture

Our Mission

Driving innovation in hardware testing, space development, and education to realize a multi-planetary future within our generation.

At SRT our mission is something we see in action every day. Whether it’s a university team using our simulant to test a new drilling technique, or a commercial partner preparing their rover for lunar deployment, our materials are behind the scenes enabling real progress.

We chose this mission because we believe the path to a multi-planetary future starts with reliable testing, shared knowledge, and accessible innovation. By helping others prepare for the harsh realities of space, we’re contributing to something much bigger than ourselves ensuring that when humanity goes farther, we go prepared.

At SRT our culture is the reason our work matters. Every sample we ship, every project we choose, and every partnership we build has the same purpose: to make space exploration more accessible, sustainable, and impactful.

We take pride in knowing our contributions help researchers test ideas that change the world and sometimes change the way humanity sees the universe itself.

These values guide how we work together, how we make decisions, and how we shape the future of space exploration.

Mission-Driven Impact

We innovate with intention, knowing our materials and ideas support missions that push humanity forward. We choose projects carefully, reflecting on purpose and potential impact and we celebrate the role we play in moving the industry ahead.

Holistic Employee Well-Being

We create an environment where health, balance, and growth are valued. Everyone shares accountability for making SRT a place where people can thrive

Authentic Transparency & Open Communication

Trust starts with openness. We share information clearly, give feedback respectfully, and communicate with honesty, especially when it’s hard.

Integrity in Action

Doing the right thing isn’t optional. We own our choices, uphold high standards, and stand by our principles in every situation.

Inclusion & Belonging

We are building a diverse space industry where everyone belongs. That means fostering opportunities, reducing barriers, and ensuring everyone’s contributions are valued.

Relentless Learning & Innovation

We embrace curiosity and treat failure as a stepping stone. Learning isn’t something we do occasionally it’s part of our everyday work.

Whether it’s a rover that succeeded because it trained on our simulant, or a researcher publishing new insights using our materials, every success story reminds us: at SRT, purpose and impact go hand in hand.
