Stratolaunch Systems, a space transportation venture established by the late Microsoft (Nasdaq: MSFT) co-founder Paul Allen, now operates under an undisclosed entity following transition of ownership from Allens Seattle-based company Vulcan.
Stratolaunch said Friday it aims to launch reusable testbed vehicles through a carrier aircraft and provide related flight support to customers.
