Noone co-founded Relativity Space, a company building a 3D printer for rockets, with Tim Ellis in 2015. As of October 2019, the company had raised $185 million in equity and grew to over 170 employees. [6] In September 2020, Noone stepped down as the CTO of Relativity Space, becoming an Executive Advisor to the company. [7]
In April 2018, Cuban told the Los Angeles Times over email that he invested in Relativity because, "They are smart, innovative, focused and always learning." [2] Ellis and Noone were also part of Y Combinator in their 2016 cohort. [10] Relativity Space announced its US$650 million Series E funding at US$4.2 billion valuation in June 2021. [11]
Relativity Space was founded in 2015 by CEO Tim Ellis and CTO Jordan Noone on the idea that existing private spaceflight companies were not tapping enough into the potential of additive manufacturing (3D printing). [6] Relativity is aiming to be the first company to successfully launch a fully 3D-printed launch vehicle into orbit. [7]
SpaceEngine is an interactive 3D planetarium and astronomy software [2] initially developed by Russian astronomer and programmer Vladimir Romanyuk. [3] Development is now continued by Cosmographic Software, an American company founded by Romanyuk and the SpaceEngine Team in February 2022, based in Connecticut.

Reconciled Maxwell's equations for electricity and magnetism with the laws of mechanics by introducing major changes to mechanics close to the speed ...
On 12 April 2023, after the first flight of the Terran 1, Relativity Space CEO Tim Ellis announced that the rocket was no longer going to be further developed and focus would move to Terran R. [6] The new version of the rocket will have a maximum payload capacity of 23,500 kg (51,800 lb) to low earth orbit (LEO) with a fully reusable first stage, and 33,500 kg (73,900 lb) to LEO if fully expended.
Living Reviews in Relativity is a peer-reviewed open-access scientific journal publishing reviews on relativity in the areas of physics and astrophysics.It was founded by Bernard Schutz and published at the Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics from 1998 to 2015.
The term "theory of relativity" was based on the expression "relative theory" (German: Relativtheorie) used in 1906 by Planck, who emphasized how the theory uses the principle of relativity. In the discussion section of the same paper, Alfred Bucherer used for the first time the expression "theory of relativity" ( German : Relativitätstheorie ).
