About Us
At Antares, we are dedicated to revolutionizing clean energy, from our planet to the Asteroid Belt. Our commitment is driven by the belief that advanced nuclear energy can empower our military, address the climate crisis, improve global living conditions, and broaden humanity's reach into space. To fulfill this vision, we are developing mass-producible, inherently safe, deployable microreactors for use on Earth, underwater, and in extraterrestrial environments.
Founded in 2023, our team is comprised of seasoned professionals from esteemed organizations such as SpaceX, The White House, MIT, and the U.S. Air Force, among others. Antares has successfully secured over $130 million in venture capital and more than $13 million in government funding.
