Hermeus, an Atlanta aerospace startup looking to disrupt global air travel by building jets that can travel at five times the speed of sound, has found a local home for its future manufacturing operations.
The 110,000-square-foot facility sits at 3960 DeKalb Technology Parkway, just south of the intersection of interstates 285 and 85, a tangle of roads and overpasses known as Spaghetti Junction.
The “Inside-the-Perimeter” location sits just nine miles away from where the venture-backed firm is testing its next-generation ramjet aircraft engines at Peachtree-DeKalb Airport.
“In selecting this location, Hermeus is proving its commitment to Atlanta and expanding its footprint,” the company said in a statement.
Hermeus raised $16 million in November and counts among its team members alumni from the likes of SpaceX, Blue Origin, NASA, GE and Honeywell.
