Teledyne Fuel Cell Successfully Launched on Blue Origin's New Shepard
Teledyne Energy Systems, Inc., a subsidiary of Teledyne Technologies Incorporated (NYSE:TDY), launched its Hydrogen Electrical Power System (HEPS) fuel cell aboard Blue Origin's New Shepard rocket through NASA's Tipping Point opportunity. Launched successfully on August 23, this flight advances fuel cell technology for future lunar and deep space missions.
HEPS is designed to deliver efficient, scalable, air-independent power for lunar habitats and surface operations, capable of surviving lunar night and functioning autonomously in microgravity.
"This launch marks a major milestone for Teledyne alongside NASA and Blue Origin," said Barbara Stachowiak, Vice President and General Manager of Teledyne Energy Systems. "HEPS reflects years of R&D to deliver reliable energy for space exploration."
This flight tested the HEPS' power generation, thermal management, and resilience to space conditions. Results will guide future integration into lunar and Mars infrastructure.
Teledyne's Tipping Point project, which is managed by NASA's Flight Opportunities program within the Space Technology Mission Directorate, will help inform NASA's plans for sustainable lunar exploration through missions like Artemis.
