We make Silicon on the Moon.
AI compute demand is scaling toward a terawatt per year, but Earth's power grid and rocket launch capacity (even Starship at full cadence) cannot support buildout at that scale.
Ethos processes lunar regolith (melting, electrolyzing, and purifying it) to produce construction materials, rocket propellant, and solar-grade silicon needed to build space-based infrastructure from mass already off Earth.
They state they are developing the process to run as it actually will on the Moon, testing molten regolith processing in hard vacuum inside their own lunar environment chamber, and are focused on being first to land for a roughly ten-year infrastructure buildout.
Co-founded by Brogan BamBrogan, SpaceX employee #23 and co-founder of Hyperloop One, who now serves as the company's CTO.
