Hadn't seen it. Nice to see. I believe SGLB already works with Lockeed, or at least has some collaboration with via America Makes (as well as aerojet rocketdyne).
Space is definitely an area where 3D printing will be influential. No less so now the sanctions on Russia means the US needs more domestic satellite launching capabilities. But be it in space or getting to space this is all highly critical manufacturing where quality control will be of utmost importance and we all know Sigma is well on the road to providing this. Should they reach the holy grail of certification/industry standard (something Mark Cola certainly hoped for and didn't rule out) then all these quasi govt space companies who perhaps focus more on the end goal than the cost, will for sure be looking Sigma's way. The fact they have national defense credentials/history will only be an added bonus when these big guys come knocking.

A great example of how Sigma can benefit from the growing additive manufacturing revolution
