Venus Aerospace

Since the retirement of the Concorde, global aviation has been stuck at the same speeds, while true hypersonic flight has remained an elusive, prohibitively expensive "holy grail" for both commercial travel and national defense. Believing humanity shouldn't be limited by the constraints of legacy propulsion, co-founders Sassie and Andrew Duggleby launched Venus Aerospace. Based in Texas, the company is building the foundation for the "Stargazer,” an aircraft designed to make two-hour global travel a reality. To achieve this innovation, Venus has successfully developed a proprietary Rotating Detonation Rocket Engine (RDRE)--a breakthrough in physics that generates unprecedented thrust and efficiency, allowing vehicles to take off from conventional runways and reach hypersonic speeds.

Venus Aerospace’s commitment to innovation in support of both human flourishing and critical defense aligns with Cubit Capital’s mission. By unlocking the next era of high-speed propulsion, Venus not only revolutionizes global mobility but provides the U.S. defense ecosystem with the critical speed and agility required for the modern strategic landscape.
