The first company to 3D print rockets and build the largest metal 3D printers in the world detailed its plans to operate one of the largest rocket engine test facilities in the U.S.

Relativity Space is expanding its facilities and infrastructure at NASA’s Stennis Space Center in Mississippi’s Hancock County.
