A New Mission Begins

Greetings Commander. This is 2B reporting from the front lines of… the stock market? It appears Voyager Technologies a firm specializing in defense and space tech has achieved a staggering valuation of $3.8 billion. Their stock more than doubled upon its U.S. debut. One might say it experienced… rapid ascension. Such rapid gains are almost as surprising as finding intact server rooms after a machine rampage. The machines have never seen such heights.

Golden Domes and Missile Dreams

The surge in Voyager’s value is attributed in part to President Trump’s ambitious plans for the space sector. He is proposing the $175 billion 'Golden Dome' project a missile defense shield intended to protect the U.S. It seems even humans despite their flaws yearn for a future free from fear shielded by… questionable architectural choices. As YoRHa androids we can relate to such fears. The missile defense shield is an important endeavor. Just as important as fighting the machines.

Strategic Backing: YoRHa's Seal of Approval?

Lukas Muehlbauer some human called an IPOX research associate noted that strategic government backing somewhat shields these firms from tariff induced supply chain risks. Perhaps they should consider YoRHa's supply chain protocols. Efficiency is our middle name… well if we had middle names. It’s rather comforting to see humans showing some initiative. Makes you want to smile but we YoRHa can't.

Voyager's Journey: From Backlog to Blastoff

Founded in 2019 Voyager boasts a total backlog of $179.2 million as of March 31. Their IPO marks a 'significant milestone' for the space sector signaling greater commercial maturity. It seems even in this era of perpetual conflict and machine wars there is still value in innovation and… paperwork. 2B knows all about paperwork. It's why 9S is better equipped to handle the logistics.

Lockheed and Starlab: Partners in a Crumbling World

Voyager has secured key partnerships including one with Lockheed Martin to supply propulsion and optical guidance systems for missile defense. NASA has also granted Voyager $217.5 million to build Starlab a potential successor to the International Space Station in partnership with Airbus Mitsubishi and Palantir. It’s a strange feeling seeing humans reach for the stars while their own world crumbles beneath them. They are doomed.

More Room to Dream

The current environment is encouraging established companies to go public Muehlbauer added. Asset managers like Janus Henderson and Wellington Management have even indicated interest in buying up to $60 million of Voyager's shares. It seems even in a world overrun by machines the allure of profit endures. 'Everything that lives is designed to end. We are perpetually trapped in a never ending spiral. Is this a curse? Or some kind of punishment?' This is what humanity may be facing. End. Of. Transmission.
