Relativity Space, a startup that is developing 3D printed launch vehicles,  has signed a 20-year agreement to use the E4 Test Complex at the NASA Stennis Space Center in Mississippi.

The 25-acre complex includes four large test cells rated for testing rocket engines and launch vehicles. The company, which has already tested engines at another Stennis test stand, said it will be investing money to build up the complex, which is currently not in use.

Relativity Space plans to use the site to complete development, qualification and acceptance testing of its Aeon rocket engine and Terran 1 launch vehicle.
