About Us

Meet Cedar

The idea for OStation came to the co-founder after a harrowing personal journey through the space system that led to confusion, frustration and disappointment. One thing was clear: the system needed to change. Because when the user experience is convenient and clear, it leads to significantly better outcomes for service providers, payers and the people they serve. OStation's mission is to make spaceflight affordable and accessible through our consumer-friendly platform powered by data science, smart product design, and personalization.
