Voyager’s Jeffrey Manber named to International Astronautical Federation Hall of Fame

DENVER--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Voyager Technologies, Inc. [NYSE: VOYG] President of International and Space Stations Jeffrey Manber is a 2025 inductee to the International Astronautical Federation Hall of Fame, which honors lasting, transformative contributions to space and its benefit to humanity.

“Jeffrey is a visionary leader, one who transformed commercial opportunities aboard the International Space Station,” said Dylan Taylor, chairman and CEO of Voyager Technologies. “This recognition reflects not only his extraordinary contributions to the space community, but also the passion, expertise and leadership he brings to Voyager every day.”

In 2009, Manber co-founded Nanoracks, which Voyager acquired in 2020, and served as Nanoracks CEO until 2021. He was instrumental in growing commercial programs for International Space Station and led the development of Voyager’s Bishop Airlock, the first and only commercial airlock on the ISS.

The only American to officially work for the Russian space program, Manber shattered barriers as managing director of Energia USA, where he forged the first commercial contract between NASA and the Soviet Union’s NPO Energia. This paved the way for Soyuz to serve as Space Station Freedom’s escape capsule. Manber also represented Energia during negotiations to build and operate the ISS.

Today, as Special Representative to the Chairman & CEO, Manber leads international growth efforts for Voyager and their global joint venture Starlab. He’s also Voyager’s inspiration behind VISTA, the nation’s first science park dedicated to in-space research, science and manufacturing.

“I am honored to join the IAF Hall of Fame alongside pioneers who have defined the future of spaceflight,” said Manber. “My career has been shaped by extraordinary teams across nations and organizations, all driven by a shared belief that space propels humanity forward. This recognition is a tribute to their vision, determination, and our collective mission to make space accessible for generations to come.”

IAF will formally present his honor during the closing ceremony of the International Astronautical Congress in Sydney, Australia, October 3. Manber’s biography, citation and photo will be on permanent display in IAF’s Hall of Fame gallery.
