Firefly Aerospace Inc. (FLY)
Firefly Aerospace Worth A Bet As The Space Race Diversifies
Firefly Aerospace presents intriguing upside in the commercial space sector, notably with its Alpha rocket targeting the small satellite launch market.

I see FLY as a high-risk, high-reward play best suited for risk capital, given technological hurdles, cash burn, and uncertain government funding.
