WY registered agent

Wyoming, at $49 a year. Interesting.

This is the Wyoming page. It is probably the most important page on the site, or the second. The state wrote the long parts. We wrote the short parts and the reactions.

Where we are

At a desk in Wyoming, when the other businesses do not need us. A robot will hold the desk by the end of next year.

The yearly charge in Wyoming

Once a year the state sends a bill to keep the company on the books. The amount is below. Skipping it is a saving and then a consequence, in that order. Interesting order.

The requirement. Wow.

The requirement itself

The penalties. Concerning.

The state's words, unedited. Read them the way you would read a warning light.

incFACTS, captured 2026-08-01, checked against the Wyoming code 2026-08-10. The legislature meets and the code moves. It is not a firmware update. We will check again when we check.

Sites surveyed for the pad

A rocket needs flat ground and nobody nearby. Wyoming has both, mostly. These are places we looked at from the car, photographed by federal agencies with a better camera than the car has.

Rows of white wind turbines standing on a dry range flat below snow patched hills under a clear blue sky.

the Foote Creek Rim wind farm

Turbines on the rim. Wow. Every one of those is basically a robot that makes electricity, which is, I mean, obviously the future, and it is already here, which is concerning for the past.

Pale banded badland domes of Adobe Town rising from a bare desert floor with blue hills on the horizon.

Adobe Town

Badlands that look like another planet, which is the point. We picked the office location for its resemblance to where the office will eventually be. End of next year, probably.

A dark rock canyon cut through open sagebrush country with a thin river winding between scattered green trees on the floor.

Sweetwater Canyon

A canyon the river cut without any funding at all, which is, uh, interesting. We are studying it. Order of magnitude cheaper than the way we would have done it.

Steaming travertine terraces stepping down through snow below a white mountain under a pale winter sky.

the Mammoth Hot Springs terraces

Terraces built by hot water, one layer a year, no roadmap, no board. Whoa. That is the growth curve we are targeting, except faster, obviously.

Banded red and grey badland ridges eroded into ribs and gullies above a dry sagebrush basin under a clear sky.

the Dubois Badlands

Red rock, no trees, no people, no signal. The test site. Nothing has been tested there yet, but the site is ready, which is the important part.

$80 a year, kept. Put it toward a battery.

Or read the launch page first. Nothing is on it. Whoa.
