Relativity Space plans to launch a Mars orbiter in 2028 as part of a new initiative to privately develop planetary missions.

Relativity Space plans to launch a Mars orbiter in 2028 as part of a new initiative to privately develop planetary missions.

Relativity Space, now led by Eric Schmidt, competes with SpaceX for Mars missions after raising over $1.3B and securing $3B in launch contracts.

NASA tapped Eric Schmidt's Relativity Space for a 2028 Mars orbiter. The catch: it has never reached orbit, and the mission carries a data centre for Mars orbit.

NASA has selected Relativity Space, now owned by Eric Schmidt, to develop a spacecraft for a Mars mission, intensifying competition with SpaceX in the race to the Red Planet.
