Spacecraft transportation infrastructure

Transportation
beyond the rocket.

Passive builds the autonomous infrastructure that allows spacecraft, launch providers, spaceports, regulators, and customers to function as one coordinated network.

Passive does not build the rocket.

We build everything required for the rocket to operate as part of a reliable transportation system.

One mission. One coordinated system.

A customer begins with a destination. Passive companies assemble the infrastructure required to reach it—each independently useful, exponentially stronger together.

The protected layer beneath every mission.

Passive owns the standards, systems, and security architecture that connect the group. Customers can adopt one service without creating another isolated operational stack.

Hayden Murphy, founder of Passive Group
Hayden MurphyFounder / Passive Group

Founder / multidisciplinary builder

Built across disciplines. Focused on systems.

Hayden Murphy began his career in audio engineering, producing recordings in studios across North America before moving into technology and innovation research.

As a co-founder of Aerimos, he worked with Dr. Michael E. Shannon on delivery mechanisms, prototype redesigns, and advanced applications of sterilization and disinfection technology across chemical, mechanical, and applied systems.

Hayden also worked with the late Peter Warton to design sound technologies for a reverberation-based acoustic defence system.

That instinct—to cross boundaries, question inherited assumptions, and turn complex ideas into working infrastructure—now informs Passive and its mission to make spacecraft transportation operate as one coordinated system.

Earlier work / Aerimos

Once above the atmosphere, a spacecraft isn't just a point in the sky. It's a data point in a living transportation system.

  1. 01
    Systems over silos

    Design the network, not another isolated tool.

  2. 02
    Authority by design

    Automation must preserve accountable human control.

  3. 03
    Evidence as infrastructure

    Every mission decision should be explainable.
