Oneliner	At SmallSpark, we’re building the cislunar public transport infrastructure for small businesses- forget the taxi, get the bus.
Description	SmallSpark’s Centralised Interface for Payload Handling and Energy Regulation (CIPHER) is a secure, modular payload interface unit that isolates integrated payloads from the spacecraft's main computer, and one another, increasing resilience against disruptions and degradation.
Notes	NEWT-A2 is now available for pre-order; the worlds simplest bi-propellant thruster. Simpler, Safer, Smarter. Available for pre-sales discussions in 50N and 200N configurations from late 2023 - powering our SLV missions in 2024. In November 2023, SmallSpark announced the acquisition of key assets from Porkchop Space, a developer of high-performance electric thrusters for orbit transfer vehicles..
