Description of Business	Note 1 — Description of Business Astra Space Operations, Inc. (formerly Astra Space, Inc., and herein “Astra Space Operations”) designs, tests, manufactures and operates next generation of launch services and space services and products that will enable a new generation of global communications, earth observation, precision weather monitoring, navigation, and surveillance capabilities. Astra Space Operations’ mission is to improve life on Earth through greater connectivity and more regular observation and to enable a wave of innovation in low Earth orbit by expanding our space platform offerings. Holicity Inc. (“Holicity”) was originally incorporated in Delaware and was established as a special purpose acquisition company, which completed its initial public offering in August 2020. On June 30, 2021 (the “Closing Date”), Holicity consummated a business combination (the “Business Combination”) pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement dated as of February 2, 2021 (the “BCA”), by and among Holicity, Holicity Merger Sub Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Holicity (“Merger Sub”), and Astra Space Operations (“pre-combination Astra”). Immediately upon the consummation of the Business Combination, Merger Sub merged with and into Astra Space Operations with Astra Space Operations surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Holicity. Holicity changed its name to “Astra Space, Inc.”, and pre-combination Astra changed its name to “Astra Space Operations, Inc.”. Unless the context otherwise requires, “we”, “us”, “our”, “Astra” and the “Company” refers to Astra Space, Inc., the combined company and its subsidiaries following the Business Combination. See Note 3 — Acquisitions for further discussion of the Business Combination. The Company’s Class A common stock is now listed on the Nasdaq under the symbol “ASTR”.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	Note 2 — Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) as determined by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for financial reporting. The consolidated financial statements, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly our financial position, our results of operations, cash flows and stockholders’ equity (deficit) for the periods presented. The results are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be anticipated for any future annual or interim period. On July 1, 2021, we, through our wholly owned indirect subsidiary, merged with Apollo Fusion, Inc. ("Apollo"). The fair value of the consideration paid as of July 1, 2021, was $ 70.8 million, net of cash acquired (the "Apollo Merger"). The Apollo Merger was accounted for under FASB’s ASC Topic 805, Business Combination (“ASC 805”). Apollo designs, tests, manufactures and operates propulsion modules to enable satellites to orbit in space. The results of operations of Apollo are included in the consolidated financial statements commencing as of July 1, 2021, or the Apollo Acquisition Date. See Note 3 — Acquisitions for additional information. On June 30, 2021, the Business Combination pursuant to the BCA, by and among Holicity, Merger Sub, and pre-combination Astra, is accounted for as a reverse recapitalization as pre-combination Astra was determined to be the accounting acquirer under ASC 805. The determination is primarily based on the evaluation of the following facts and circumstances: • the equity holders of pre-combination Astra hold the majority of voting rights in the Company; • the board of directors of pre-combination Astra represent a majority of the members of the board of directors of the Company; • the senior management of pre-combination Astra became the senior management of the Company; and • the operations of pre-combination Astra comprise the ongoing operations of the Company. In connection with the Business Combination, outstanding common stock and preferred convertible stock of the pre-combination Astra was converted into common stock of the Company, par value of $ 0.0001 per share, representing a recapitalization, and the net assets of the Company were acquired and recorded at historical cost, with no goodwill or intangible assets recorded. Pre-combination Astra was deemed to be the predecessor and the consolidated assets and liabilities and results of operations prior to the Closing Date are those of pre-combination Astra. Reported shares and earnings per share available to common stockholders, prior to the Business Combination, have been retroactively restated as shares reflecting the exchange ratio established in the BCA. The number of shares of preferred stock was also retroactively restated based on the exchange ratio. See Note 3 — Acquisitions for additional information Principles of Consolidation and Liquidity The consolidated financial statements include the accounts for the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company has historically funded its operations primarily by equity financings and convertible promissory notes prior to the Business Combination and subsequently funded its operations through cash proceeds obtained as part of the Business Combination and related private placement. As of December 31, 2021, the Company’s existing sources of liquidity included cash and cash equivalents of $ 325 million . The Company has a limited history of operations and has incurred negative cash flows from operating activities and loss from operations in the past as reflected in the accumulated deficit of $ 1,408.4 million as of December 31, 2021. The Company expects to continue to incur operating losses due to the investments it intends to make in its business, including the development of products. The Company has adequate cash balances that will be sufficient to fund operating and capital expenditure requirements through at least 12 months from the date of issuance of these financial statements. Segment Reporting Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision-maker (“CODM”) in making decisions regarding resource allocation and assessing performance. All of the Company’s assets are maintained in the United States. The Company has determined that it operates in one operating segment and one reportable segment, as the CODM reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis for purposes of making operating decisions, allocating resources and evaluating financial performance. Risks and Uncertainties The Company is subject to those risks common in the aerospace and technology industry and also those risks common to early stage companies including, but not limited to, the possibility of not being able to successfully develop or market its products or services, competition, dependence on key personnel and key external alliances, the successful protection of its proprietary technologies, compliance with government regulations, and the possibility of not being able to obtain additional financing when needed. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) a global pandemic and recommended containment and mitigation measures worldwide. The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted everyday life and markets worldwide, leading to significant business and supply-chain disruption, as well as broad-based changes in supply and demand. Many of the Company’s customers worldwide were impacted by COVID-19 and temporarily closed their facilities which impacted the speed of research and development. Additionally, we implemented cost-cutting measures in response to the anticipated impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020, including employee layoffs and temporary furloughs. Further, the Company’s fund raising was negatively impacted in the first half of 2020 as a result of a number of factors surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic. Beginning in the first quarter of 2021, there has been a trend in many parts of the world of increasing availability and administration of vaccines against COVID-19, as well as an easing of restrictions on social, business, travel and government activities and functions. On the other hand, infection rates and regulations continue to fluctuate in various regions and there are ongoing global impacts resulting from the pandemic, including challenges and increases in costs for logistics and supply chains, such as increased intermittent supplier delays and a shortfall of semiconductor supply. Ultimately, we cannot predict the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic. We will continue to monitor macroeconomic conditions to remain flexible and to optimize and evolve our business as appropriate and deploy our production, workforce and other resources accordingly. Use of Estimates The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The Company bases these estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the valuation of goodwill and intangible assets, inventory valuation, stock-based compensation, common stock, derivatives and warrants, useful lives of intangible assets and fixed assets, deferred tax assets, income tax uncertainties, contingent consideration and other contingencies. Cash and Cash Equivalents We consider all highly liquid investment securities with original maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents consists of cash deposited with banks and a money market account. We determine the appropriate classification of our cash and cash equivalents at the time of purchase. Trade Accounts Receivable Trade accounts receivable are recognized at the invoiced amount that represents an unconditional right to consideration under the contract with customers, less an allowance for any potential expected uncollectible amounts, and do not bear interest. The allowance for doubtful accounts is determined by estimating the expected credit losses based on historical experience, current economic conditions and certain forward-looking information, among other factors. Uncollectible accounts are written off when deemed uncollectible. No allowances for expected credit losses were recorded as of December 31, 2021 and 2020 and no accounts were written off during the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019. Concentration of Credit Risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consists of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company maintains cash and cash equivalent balances in bank accounts with one bank. All cash accounts are located in the United States and insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). Our accounts receivable are derived from revenue earned from customers or invoice billed to customer that represent unconditional right to consideration located within the U.S. We mitigate collection risks from our customers by performing regular credit evaluations of our customers’ financial conditions. The Company believes there is no exposure to any significant credit risks related to its cash and cash equivalents or accounts receivable and has not experienced any losses in such accounts. Inventories Inventories consist of materials expected to be used for customer-specific contracts. Costs include direct material, direct labor, applicable manufacturing and engineering overhead, and other direct costs. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value determined by the first-in, first-out method. The Company assesses inventories quarterly for events or changes in circumstances indicating that the utility of our inventories have diminished through damage, deterioration, obsolescence, changes in price or other causes and records write-downs of inventories to research and development expense in the period for which they occur. A net realizable value write down is recorded, when actual costs exceed the estimated selling price less estimated selling costs. Property, Plant and Equipment Property, plant and equipment is measured at cost less any impairment losses and represents those assets with estimated useful lives exceeding one year. Repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Costs for research and development equipment include amounts related to design, construction, launch and commissioning. Costs for production equipment include amounts related to construction and testing. Interest expense is capitalized on certain qualifying assets that take a substantial period of time to prepare for their intended use. Capitalized interest is not material for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. When the costs of certain components of an item of property, plant and equipment are significant in relation to the total cost of the item and the components have different useful lives, they are accounted for and depreciated separately. Depreciation expense is recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the related asset to its residual value. The estimated useful lives are as follows: Asset Class Estimated useful life Leasehold improvements Lesser of lease term or useful life Research and development equipment 5 years Production equipment 10 years Furniture and fixtures 5 years Computer and software 3 years Business Combinations We account for business combinations under the acquisition method of accounting, which requires us to recognize separately from goodwill the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed at their acquisition date fair values. While we use our best estimates and assumptions to accurately value assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date as well as contingent consideration, where applicable, our estimates are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement. As a result, during the measurement period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date, we record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with the corresponding offset to goodwill. Upon the conclusion of the measurement period or final determination of the values of assets acquired or liabilities assumed, whichever comes first, any subsequent adjustments are recognized in our consolidated statements of operations. Accounting for business combinations requires our management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially at the acquisition date including our estimates for intangible assets, contractual obligations assumed, pre-acquisition contingencies, and contingent consideration, where applicable. Although we believe the assumptions and estimates we have made are reasonable and appropriate, they are based, in part, on historical experience and information obtained from the management of the acquired company and are inherently uncertain. Critical estimates in valuing certain acquired intangible assets under the income approach include growth in future expected cash flows from product sales, revenue growth rate, technology royalty rate, expected life of the technology acquired, customer retention rate and discount rates. Unanticipated events and circumstances may occur that may affect the accuracy or validity of such assumptions, estimates or actual results. Goodwill Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price and related costs over the value assigned to the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets of businesses acquired. Goodwill is not amortized but is reviewed annually on October 1 (or more frequently if impairment indicators arise) for impairment. To review for impairment, we first assess qualitative factors to determine whether events or circumstances lead to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of our reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. Our qualitative assessment of the recoverability of goodwill, whether performed annually or based on specific events or circumstances, considers various macroeconomic, industry-specific and company-specific factors. Those factors include: (i) severe adverse industry or economic trends; (ii) significant company-specific actions; (iii) current, historical or projected deterioration of our financial performance; or (iv) a sustained decrease in our market capitalization below our net book value. After assessing the totality of events and circumstances, if we determine that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of our reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, no further assessment is performed. If we determine that it is more likely than not that the fair value of our reporting units is less than its carrying amount, we calculate the fair value of that reporting unit and compare the fair value to the reporting unit’s net book value. If the fair value of the reporting unit is greater than its net book value, there is no impairment. Otherwise, we record a goodwill impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value up to the amount of the goodwill. Determining the fair value of a reporting unit involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions. Long-lived Assets Purchased finite-lived intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization is recognized over the useful life on a straight-line method. Purchased indefinite-lived intangible asset are capitalized at fair value and assessed for impairment thereafter. Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment annually on October 1 or whenever factors or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of long-lived assets, including purchased intangible assets and property, plant and equipment, may not be recoverable. Factors we consider important which could trigger an impairment review include (i) significant under-performance relative to historical or projected future operating results, (ii) significant changes in the manner of our use of the acquired assets or the strategy for our overall business, and (iii) significant negative industry or economic trends. An impairment loss must be measured if the sum of the expected future cash flows (undiscounted and before interest) from the use and eventual disposition of the asset (or asset group) is less than the net book value of the asset (or asset group). The amount of the impairment loss will generally be measured as the difference between the net book value of the asset (or asset group) and the estimated fair value. Leases On January 1, 2021, the Company adopted ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) ("ASC 842"). Under the adoption of the new lease accounting standard, the Company elected practical expedients that allow entities to not reassess 1) initial direct costs, 2) lease classification for existing or expired leases and 3) lease definition for existing or expired contracts as of the effective date of January 1, 2021. Upon adoption of ASC 842, the Company determines whether a contract is or contains a lease at contract inception by evaluating whether substitution rights exist and whether the Company obtains substantially all of the benefits and directs the use of the identified asset. When the Company determined a lease exists, the Company records a right-of-use asset (“ROU asset”) and corresponding lease liability in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term. Lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets are recognized at the commencement date of the lease at the value of the lease liability, adjusted for any prepayments, lease incentives received, and initial direct costs incurred. Lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement date of the lease based on the present value of remaining lease payments over the lease term. As the discount rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable in most leases, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date of the lease in determining the present value of lease payments. Lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. The Company does not record lease contracts with a lease term of 12 months or less on its Consolidated Balance Sheets. Fixed lease costs associated with these short-term contracts are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company does not record lease contracts acquired in a business combination with a remaining lease term of 12 months or less on its Consolidated Balance Sheets. Fixed lease costs associated with these short-term contracts are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company recognizes lease expense for operating leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For finance leases, the Company recognizes amortization expense on the ROU asset and interest expense on the lease liability over the lease term. The Company has lease agreements with non-lease components that relate to the lease components. The Company accounts for each lease component and any non-lease components associated with that lease component as a single lease component for all underlying asset classes. Accordingly, all costs associated with a contract that is or contains a lease are accounted for as lease costs. Some leasing arrangements require variable payments that are dependent on usage, output, or may vary for other reasons, such as insurance and tax payments. These variable lease costs are recognized as incurred over the lease term. The Company does not include significant restrictions or covenants in lease agreements, and residual value guarantees are generally not included within the Company’s leases. See Note 10 — Leases. Fair Value Measurements The carrying amounts of cash, trade accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, other current assets, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and certain other current liabilities approximate fair value because of their short-term maturities. The carrying amounts of the 2018 Term Loans and 2018 Equipment Advances (as defined in Note 7 — Long-Term Debt) approximate fair value as the interest rate varies with the Prime Rate. According to ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy establishes three tiers, which prioritize the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows: Level 1 — Observable inputs, such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2 — Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and Level 3 — Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions. Entities are permitted to choose to measure certain financial instruments and other items at fair value. The Company has not elected the fair value measurement option for any of the assets or liabilities that meet the criteria for this election. Derivative Instruments The Company recognizes all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at their respective fair values. The Company evaluates its debt and equity issuances to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives requiring separate recognition in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The result of this accounting treatment is that the fair value of the embedded derivative is revalued as of each reporting date and recorded as a liability, and the change in fair value during the reporting period is recorded in other income, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as assets/liabilities or as equity, is reassessed at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument assets and liabilities are classified in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument is expected within twelve months of the Consolidated Balance Sheets dates. When a derivative instrument is sold, terminated, exercised or expires, the gain or loss is recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company did not have a derivative liability related to the share settlement obligation of the Company’s convertible notes as of December 31, 2021 and 2020. See Note 7 — Long-Term Debt. Accrued Expenses and Other Current Liabilities Accrued expenses and other current liabilities are recognized when events or circumstances have occurred, and amounts are probable and estimable. The Company’s accrued expenses and other current liabilities balances relate to accruals that are recurring in nature to the company's operations and primarily include accrual of routine operational related expenses, accrued payroll, other employee related liabilities, accrued interest related to debt, contract liabilities and other accrued liabilities. The Company also recognizes legal accruals in accrued expenses and other current liabilities for material litigation when payments are probable and estimable in accordance with ASC 450, Contingencies. Warrant Liabilities The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s common stock, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding. For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and at each reporting period thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the warrants are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the statements of operations. The Company redeemed all outstanding private and public warrants as of December 27, 2021. Convertible Preferred Stock Series A, B and C convertible preferred stock ("Convertible Preferred Stock") are classified in temporary equity as they contain terms that could require the Company to redeem them for cash at the option of the holder or the occurrence of other events not solely within the Company’s control. The shares of Series A, B and C Convertible Preferred Stock were converted into Class A common stock upon consummation of the Business Combination. Revenue Recognition In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ( Topic 606 ) (“ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09, combined with all subsequent amendments, which is collectively Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606 (“ASC 606”), Revenue from Contracts with Customers, provides guidance outlining a single five-step comprehensive revenue model in accounting for revenue from contracts with customers which supersedes all existing revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. ASC 606 also requires additional disclosures about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to fulfill a contract. The Company adopted the new accounting guidance and related amendments (collectively, the “new revenue accounting standard”) on January 1, 2020 using the modified retrospective method. As the Company did not have any revenue from contracts with any customers prior to the Company’s adoption date, there was no accounting impact upon adoption. Under ASC 606, the Company will recognize revenue to reflect the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Through its current and anticipated offerings, the Company expects to generate revenue by providing the following services: Launch Services — To provide rapid, global, and affordable launch services to satellite operators and governments in partnership with third-party spaceport providers globally. Our launch services includes services tied directly to our launch along with complementary services that are not part of our fixed pricing for which we charge a separate fee. We currently operate our launches from Pacific Spaceport Complex in Kodiak, Alaska and Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Cape Canaveral, Florida. We plan to add additional launch sites in diverse locations based on our customers' inclination requirements and as we increase the frequency of launches. Space Products — To design and provide space products based on the customers' needs for a successful satellite launch and other products that we may sell in the future. Currently we offer two in-space electric propulsion systems. Space Services — To invest in building our portfolio of space services, which includes communication service and constellation services, which will be based on our network of spacecraft that customers can access for use in their business. Specifically, our space services encompass all aspects of hosted satellite and constellation services, including hosting customer payloads onto our spacecraft, and delivering services, such as communication and other services, to customers from our space platform. As of December 31, 2021, the Company has only entered into contracts for launch services and space products. As of December 31, 2021, the Company is in early stages of developing our space services offerings which includes communication service and constellation services. The Company’s contracts may provide customers with termination for convenience clauses, which may or may not include termination penalties. In some contracts, the size of the contractual termination penalty increases closer to the scheduled launch date. At each balance sheet date, the Company evaluates each contract’s termination provisions and the impact on the accounting contract term, i.e., the period in which the Company has enforceable rights and obligations. This includes evaluating whether there are termination penalties and if so, whether they are considered substantive. The Company applies judgment in determining whether the termination penalties are substantive. No revenue has been recognized for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. Revenue for launch services and space products is expected to be recognized at a point in time when the Company has delivered the promised services or products to customers. Although the Company’s contracts are anticipated to last anywhere from six to 24 months, depending on the number of launch services or units of products ordered, the delivery of services leading up to the launch within the contracts is short-term in nature, generally between 30 to 60 days. The timing of revenue recognition may differ from contract billing or payment schedules, resulting in revenues that have been earned but not billed (“unbilled revenue”) or amounts that have been collected, but not earned (“contract liabilities”). Typical Contractual Arrangements The Company expects to provide its services based upon a combination of a Statement of Work ("SOW") and an executed contract detailing the general terms and conditions. Services are expected to be provided based on a fixed price per launch service or units of space products as identified in the contract. Performance Obligations and Transaction Price At contract inception, an assessment of the goods and services promised in the contracts with customers is performed and a performance obligation is identified for each distinct promise to transfer to the customer a good or service (or bundle of goods or services). To identify the performance obligations, the Company considers all the goods or services promised in the contract regardless of whether they are explicitly stated or are implied by customary business practices. A contract for launch services generally requires the Company to provide an integrated service for each launch, which includes launch vehicle analysis and design, development and production, payload integration, launch preparation and launch support execution. The intention of the contract is to provide a full-service launch to the customer rather than providing separate deliverables of each of the services outlined above, and these services are interdependen

Acquisitions

Acquisitions	12 Months Ended

Business Combinations [Abstract]
Acquisitions	Note 3 — Acquisitions Acquisition of Apollo Fusion, Inc. On the Apollo Acquisition Date, we, through our wholly owned indirect subsidiary, merged with Apollo. The results of Apollo’s operations have been included in the consolidated financial statements since that date. Apollo designs, tests, manufactures and operates propulsion modules to enable satellites to orbit in space. The acquisition-date fair value of the consideration transferred totaled $ 70.8 million, net of cash acquired, which consisted of the following: Purchase Consideration (in thousands) As Reported Measurement Period Adjustment As Cash paid for outstanding Apollo common stock and options $ 19,926 $ — $ 19,926 Fair value of Astra Class A common stock issued 33,008 — 33,008 Fair value of contingent consideration 23,000 ( 4,600 ) 18,400 Total purchase consideration 75,934 ( 4,600 ) 71,334 Less: cash acquired 566 — 566 Total purchase consideration, net of cash acquired $ 75,368 $ ( 4,600 ) $ 70,768 The fair value of the shares of Class A common stock issued in the Apollo Merger was determined based on the closing market price of the Company’s Class A common stock on the Apollo Acquisition Date. The vesting of all unvested stock options of Apollo granted prior to the Apollo Acquisition Date were accelerated prior to the acquisition and were then cancelled in exchange for a right of each option-holder to cash, equity and contingent consideration based on their pro-rata percentage, assuming all stock options of Apollo had been exercised. The contingent consideration requires the Company to pay $ 75.0 million of additional consideration to Apollo’s former shareholders and option-holders, if Apollo meets certain customer revenue related milestones over a two and half year period ending on December 31, 2023. The contingent consideration is earned, which is a combination of total contract value and relevant payout ratio, if the contract with customer is entered into after the acquisition date and 25 % of revenue under the contract is recognized by December 31, 2023 under ASC 606. Contingent consideration is payable on a quarterly basis based on the milestones achieved. The fair value of the contingent consideration arrangement at the acquisition date was $ 18.4 million. We estimated the fair value of the contingent consideration using a Monte Carlo simulation model. This fair value measurement is based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement as defined in ASC 820. As of December 31, 2021, the contingent consideration recognized as a result of the acquisition of Apollo decreased to $13 .7 million as a result of changes in forecasted revenues subject to milestone payments and the passage of time. An additional $ 10.0 million of cash ("Cash Earnout") will be paid to employees of Apollo that joined Astra, subject to certain performance-based milestones, as amended. The Cash Earnout is accounted for as compensation expense over the requisite service period in the post-acquisition period as the payment is subject to the employees continued employment with the Company and is payable after the achievement of each performance-based milestones. The Company assessed the probability of success of each performance-based milestone and determined that the Company has achieved certain performance-based milestones and it is probable that certain remaining performance-based milestones will be met. The Company recognized $ 5.8 million in compensation cost which was included in research and development expense in its Consolidated Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2021. The Company also recorded $ 3.9 million within accrued expenses and other current liabilities in its Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2021. In addition, the Company awarded 1,047,115 PSUs to employees of Apollo that joined Astra, subject to certain performance-based milestones, as amended, and other vesting provisions. The PSUs are accounted for as compensation expense over the requisite service period in the post-acquisition period as the vesting of PSUs is subject to time-based and performance-based vesting conditions. See Note 15 — Stock-based Compensation for additional information. We allocated the fair value of the purchase consideration to the tangible assets, liabilities and intangible assets acquired, based on their estimated fair values. The excess purchase price over those fair values is recorded as goodwill. Our valuation assumptions of acquired assets and assumed liabilities require significant estimates, especially with respect to intangible assets. The purchase consideration allocation set forth herein is preliminary and may be revised as additional information becomes available during the measurement period which could be up to 12 months from the closing date of the acquisition. Any such revisions or changes may be material. Our preliminary allocation of the purchase price of Apollo, based on the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date, is presented in the following table. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company continued finalizing its valuations of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the acquisition of Apollo based on new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company recorded measurement period adjustments, reducing its acquisition date goodwill by approximately $ 3.0 million primarily to decrease the fair value of contingent consideration by $ 4.6 million and intangible assets by $ 1.7 million based on the alignment of Apollo's accounting policies related to revenue recognition under the contract with customers which impacted the revenues forecasted for the valuation of contingent consideration and intangible assets acquired. In addition, the change to the preliminary amount of intangible assets resulted in a decrease in amortization expense and accumulated amortization of $ 0.2 million, of which $ 0.1 million relates to a previous reporting period. (in thousands) As Reported Adoption of Measurement Period Adjustment As Adjusted Inventory $ 131 $ — $ — $ 131 Prepaid and other current assets 796 — — 796 Property, plant and equipment 996 — — 996 Right of use assets 163 — — 163 Goodwill 58,893 2,308 ( 2,950 ) 58,251 Intangible assets 17,000 — ( 1,650 ) 15,350 Other non-current assets 75 — — 75 Total assets acquired 78,054 2,308 ( 4,600 ) 75,762 Accounts payable ( 950 ) — — ( 950 ) Accrued expenses and other current liabilities ( 836 ) ( 1,103 ) — ( 1,939 ) Operating lease obligation ( 163 ) — — ( 163 ) Other non-current liabilities ( 737 ) ( 1,205 ) — ( 1,942 ) Total liabilities assumed ( 2,686 ) ( 2,308 ) — ( 4,994 ) Fair value of net assets acquired $ 75,368 $ — $ ( 4,600 ) $ 70,768 Goodwill is primarily attributable to the assembled workforce and anticipated synergies expected from the integration of the Apollo business. The synergies include operating efficiencies, and other strategic benefits projected to be achieved as a result of the Apollo Merger. Goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes. There were no revenues recorded during the year ended December 31, 2021 related to Apollo. It was impracticable to determine the effect on net income attributable to Apollo as we had integrated a substantial portion of Apollo into our ongoing operations during the year. Transaction costs related to the Apollo Merger of $ 4.0 million were included in general and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2021. Intangible Assets Fair Value Weighted-Average Amortization Periods (in thousands) (in years) Developed technology $ 12,100 6 Customer contracts and related relationships 2,900 3 Order backlog 200 1 Tradename 150 2 Total identified intangible assets $ 15,350 Developed technology relates to propulsion modules. We valued the developed technology using the relief-from-royalty method under the income approach. This method is based on the application of a royalty rate to forecasted revenue that are expected to be generated by developed technology. The economic useful life was determined based on the technology cycle related to the developed technology, as well as the cash flows over the forecast period. Customer contracts and related relationships represent the fair value of future projected revenue that will be derived from sales of products to existing customers of Apollo. Customer contracts and related relationships were valued using the multi-period excess earnings method under the income approach. This method reflects the present value of the projected cash flows that are expected to be generated by the customer contracts and related relationships less charges representing the contribution of other assets to those cash flows. The economic useful life was determined based on historical customer turnover rates. Order backlog represents business under existing contractual obligations. The fair value of backlog was determined using the multi-period excess earnings method under the income approach based on expected operating cash flows from future contractual revenue. The economic useful life was determined based on the expected life of the backlog and the cash flows over the forecast period. Trade name relates to the “Apollo” trade name. The fair value was determined by applying the relief-from-royalty method under the income approach. This method is based on the application of a royalty rate to forecasted revenue under the trade name. The economic useful life was determined based on the expected life of the trade name and the cash flows anticipated over the forecast period. We believe the amounts of purchased intangible assets recorded above represent the fair values of, and approximate the amounts a market participant would pay for, these intangible assets as of the Apollo Acquisition Date. Unaudited Pro Forma Information The following unaudited pro forma financial information presents combined results of operations for each of the periods presented, as if Apollo had been acquired as of the beginning of fiscal year 2020. The unaudited pro forma results include certain pro forma adjustments to revenue and net loss that were directly attributable to the acquisition including transaction costs and amortization of intangible assets. Transactions costs of approximately $ 4.4 million are assumed to have occurred on January 1, 2020 and are recognized in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations as if incurred in the year ended December 31, 2021. Of these transaction costs, $ 0.4 million were incurred by Apollo and $ 4.0 million were incurred by the Company. Intangible assets are assumed to be recognized at their assigned fair values as of the pro forma close date of January 1, 2020 and are amortized over their estimated useful lives. The amortization expenses were $ 3.1 million and $ 3.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The unaudited pro forma information presented below is for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of our consolidated results of operations of the combined business had the acquisition actually occurred at the beginning of fiscal year 2020 or of the results of our future operations of the combined business. For The Year Ended December 31, (in thousands) 2021 2020 Pro forma net revenue $ 400 $ 322 Pro forma net loss and net loss attributable to common stockholders $ ( 255,268 ) $ ( 86,655 ) Reverse Recapitalization. On June 30, 2021, pre-combination Astra Space, Inc. and Holicity Inc. consummated the Business Combination contemplated by the BCA, with pre-combination Astra surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Holicity. Upon consummation of the Business Combination, Holicity changed its name to Astra Space, Inc., and pre-combination Astra changed its name to Astra Space Operations, Inc. Immediately following the Business Combination, there were 198,090,903 shares of Class A common stock and 56,239,189 shares of Class B common stock issued and outstanding with a par value of $ 0.0001 . Additionally, there were outstanding options to purchase an aggregate of 5,993,412 shares of Class A common stock and outstanding warrants to purchase 15,813,829 shares of Class A common stock. The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with GAAP as pre-combination Astra has been determined to be the accounting acquirer. Under this method of accounting, while Holicity was the legal acquirer, it has been treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, the Business Combination was treated as the equivalent of pre-combination Astra issuing stock for the net assets of Holicity, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Holicity were stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the Business Combination are those of pre-combination Astra. Reported shares and earnings per share available to holders of the Company’s common stock, prior to the Business Combination, have been retroactively restated as shares reflecting the exchange ratio established in the BCA ( approximately one pre-combination Astra share to 0.665 of the Company's shares ). The most significant change in the post-combination Company’s reported financial position and results was an increase in cash, net of transactions costs, of $ 463.6 million, including $ 200.0 million in gross proceeds from the private placements (the “PIPE”). In connection with the Business Combination, $ 25.2 million of transaction costs were paid on the Closing Date. Additionally, on the Closing Date, the Company repaid the short-term promissory notes with Pendrell (the “Bridge Loan”) of $ 10.4 million, which included principal of $ 10.0 million and end of term fee of $ 0.4 million. The Company also repaid the outstanding principal and interest of $ 4.6 million for the term loan and equipment advances with Silicon Valley Bank. Refer to Note 7 – Long-term Debt. The Company incurred $ 25.5 million in transaction costs relating to the merger with Holicity, of which $ 23.3 million has been recorded against additional paid-in capital in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and the remaining amount of $ 2.2 million was recognized as general and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. On the Closing Date of the Business Combination, the Company recorded a liability related to the public and private placement warrants of $ 56.8 million, with an offsetting entry to additional paid-in capital. In relation to the public and private placement warrants, the Company recognized a portion of pre-combination Astra’s capitalizable transaction costs relating to the merger with Holicity, using the relative fair value method, as general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Upon closing of the Business Combination, the shareholders of Holicity, including Holicity founders, were issued 37,489,019 shares of Class A common stock. In connection with the Closing, holders of 10,981 shares of common stock of Holicity were redeemed at a price per share of $ 10.00 . In connection with the Closing 20,000,000 shares were issued to PIPE investors at a price per share of $ 10.00 . The number of shares of Class A common stock issued immediately following the consummation of the Business Combination were: Common stock of Holicity 29,989,019 Holicity founder shares 7,500,000 Shares issued in PIPE 20,000,000 Business Combination and PIPE shares 57,489,019 Pre-combination Astra shares 140,601,884 Total shares of Class A common stock immediately after Business Combination 198,090,903 In addition, in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, 56,239,189 shares of Class B common stock were issued to two executive officers and founders of the Company: Chris Kemp and Adam London in exchange for an aggregate 73,699,647

Recently Issued and Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements	Note 4 — Recently Issued and Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. This temporary guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying US GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions that reference London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. ASU 2020-04 is effective from March 12, 2020 and may be applied prospectively through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance. Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) ("ASU 2016-02"), and since that date has issued subsequent amendments to the initial guidance intended to clarify certain aspects of the guidance and to provide certain practical expedients entities can elect upon adoption. The principle of ASU 2016-02 is that a lessee should recognize assets and liabilities that arise from leases. Lessees will need to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases (other than leases that meet the definition of a short-term lease). The lease liability will be equal to the present value of lease payments. The right-of-use asset will be based on the liability, with differences related to deferred rent and initial direct costs, etc. For income statement purposes, ASU 2016-02 requires leases to be classified as either operating or finance. Operating leases will result in a straight-line expense pattern while finance leases will result in a front-loaded expense pattern. ASU 2016-02 is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2022. As of January 1, 2021, the Company adopted Topic 842 using the modified retrospective approach and as a result will not restate prior periods. The cumulative effect of the changes made to the January 1, 2021 Consolidated Balance Sheet for the adoption of ASU 2016-02 was the addition of a right-of-use asset of $ 4.6 million and a lease liability of $ 4.7 million. See Note 10 — Leases. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”), which requires measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held at amortized cost, including trade receivables. ASU 2016-13 replaces the existing incurred loss impairment model with an expected loss model that requires the forward-looking information to calculate credit loss estimates. It also eliminates the concept of other-than-temporary impairment and requires credit losses related to available-for-sale debt securities to be recorded through an allowance for credit losses rather than as a reduction in the amortized cost basis of the securities. These changes will result in more timely recognition of credit losses. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 using the modified retrospective method on January 1, 2021. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, operating results or cash flows. In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU 2019-12”), which simplifies the accounting for income taxes. The standard is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2020, The Company adopted ASU 2019-12 on January 1, 2021. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt — Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity (“ASU 2020-06”), which simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments by removing the separation models for (1) convertible instruments with a cash conversion feature and (2) convertible instruments with a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”). As a result, a convertible debt instrument can be accounted for as a single liability measured at its amortized cost under certain circumstances. These changes may reduce reported interest expense and increase reported net income for entities that have issued a convertible instrument where the embedded conversion option was separated according to beneficial conversion or cash conversion guidance. ASU 2020-06 also requires the application of the if-converted method for calculating diluted earnings per share for convertible instruments and the treasury stock method will be no longer available. The Company adopted ASU 2020-06 as of January 1, 2021 using a modified retrospective transition method. In transition, the Company was required to apply the guidance to all impacted financial instruments that were outstanding as of January 1, 2021 with the cumulative effect recognized as an adjustment to the opening balance of accumulated deficit. As a result of adopting ASU 2020-06, the Company made certain adjustments to its accounting for certain outstanding convertible notes issued in 2020 with separately recognized BCFs. The adoption of ASU 2020-06 resulted in the re-combination of the liability and equity components of these convertible notes into a single liability instrument, which required the Company to record a $ 9.7 million decrease in additional paid in capital from the derecognition of the BCFs, a $ 9.0 million increase in debt from the derecognition of the discount associated with the BCFs, and a $ 0.7 million cumulative effect, net of tax effects, decrease to the opening balance of its accumulated deficit as of January 1, 2021 upon transition. Since the Company had a net loss for the year ended December 31, 2021, the convertible notes were determined to be anti-dilutive and therefore had no impact to basic or diluted net loss per share for the period as a result of adopting ASU 2020-06. In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers ("ASU 2021-08"), which improves the accounting for acquired revenue contracts with customers in a business combination by addressing inconsistency in practice related to (1) the recognition of an acquired contract liability (deferred revenue); and (2) payment terms and their effect on subsequent revenue recognized by the acquirer. The amendments in this update require an entity (acquirer) to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with Topic 606. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Adoption of the ASU should be applied prospectively. Early adoption is also permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If early adopted, the amendments are applied retrospectively to all business combinations for which the acquisition date occurred during the fiscal year of adoption. As of October 1, 2021, the Company early adopted ASU 2021-08 using the retrospective approach to all business combination for which acquisition date occurred during the year ended December 31, 2021. The cumulative effect of the changes made to the Consolidated Balance Sheet for the adoption of ASU 2021-08 was a $ 2.3 million increase in contract liabilities and goodwill related to the Company's acquisition of Apollo.

Costs related to the construction of research and development launch vehicles are recorded as research and development expenses when incurred. Under the Company’s business model, launch vehicles are manufactured to deliver customer payloads of various sizes to various locations in low-earth orbit. There were $ 6.7 million of inventory net realizable value write downs recorded during the year ended December 31, 2021. There were no inventory net realizable value write downs recorded during the year ended December 31, 2020 and 2019.

Depreciation expense is recorded within operating expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and amounted to $ 3.7 million, $ 3.3 million and $ 2.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. No impairment charges were recorded for the year ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019. Kodiak Spaceport On June 19, 2019, the Company entered into an agreement with Alaska Aerospace Corporation (“AAC”) to develop a commercial launch pad site (“Launch Pad”) in Kodiak, Alaska. The Launch Pad development includes construction of the Launch Pad and obtaining Federal Aviation Administration spaceport license approval for launch operations beginning in August 2019. The Launch Pad’s costs were jointly funded by AAC and the Company. Throughout the term of the agreement, the State of Alaska retains ownership of the developed Launch Pad site and the Company leases it. The Company’s involvement in the construction of the Launch Pad, inclusive of the land, resulted in the Company being recognized as the owner of the Launch Pad during the lease term. Prior to the adoption of ASC 842, the arrangement was accounted for as a build-to-suit lease under ASC 840 — Leases. The total construction costs of $ 2.1 million were capitalized within property, plant and equipment, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheet, and were depreciated on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease term. AAC’s contributions of $ 0.8 million were recorded as a financing obligation which was included in other non-current liabilities on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets to be released at the end of the lease term. Upon adoption of ASC 842 on January 1, 2021, the Company derecognized the Kodiak Spaceport asset of $ 2.1 million, the accumulated depreciation of $ 0.4 million, and the financing obligation of $ 0.8 million, with an adjustment to equity for the difference. The Company also recognized a right-of-use asset of $ 0.9 million for the Kodiak Spaceport lease. No lease payments remained to be paid as of the transition date. As such, equity was adjusted against the right-of-use asset. See Note 10 — Leases.

Debt issuance costs were not material for any debt obligations individually, or in the aggregate, for the issuances of the above debt obligations. Therefore, debt issuance costs were expensed upon the issuance of respective debt obligations. Current portion of long-term debt outstanding as of December 31, 2020 includes those principal balances and unamortized debt discount expected to be repaid within twelve months from December 31, 2020. In connection with the Business Combination, all outstanding debt with the exception of the Paycheck Protection Program note were settled on June 30, 2021. Refer to Note – 3 Acquisitions. In August 2021, the Company's application for forgiveness of Paycheck Protection Program was approved in the full amount. Term Loan and Equipment Advances On December 25, 2018, the Company entered into a loan agreement (the “2018 Loan Agreement”) with Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”). Pursuant to the 2018 Loan Agreement, the Company can borrow up to a total of $ 3.0 million term loans (“2018 Term Loans”) and $ 7.0 million equipment loans (“2018 Equipment Advances”) with access period ended on April 30, 2020 for 2018 Term Loans and June 30, 2019 for 2018 Equipment Advances. For the 2018 Term Loans, monthly payments of interest only were required to be made commencing on the first day of the month following the month in which the funding occurs with respect to such term loan, and continuing thereafter on the first day of each successive calendar month, through April 30, 2020. Commencing May 1, 2020 and continuing thereafter on the first day of each successive calendar month through its maturity date, monthly payments of equal principal and accrued interest are required to be remitted. For each equipment advance, commencing on the first day of the month following the month in which the funding date occurs with respect to such equipment advance, and continuing thereafter on the first day of each successive calendar month through its equipment maturity dates, monthly payments of equal principal and accrued interest are required to be remitted. The 2018 Term Loans bear an interest rate equal to the greater of (i) 5.25 % or (ii) 1.5 % above the Prime Rate. The 2018 Equipment Advances bear an interest rate equal to the greater of (i) 5.25 % or (ii) 1.0 % above the Prime Rate. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the interest rate for the 2018 Term Loans and the 2018 Equipment Advances was 5.25 %. The Prime Rate is defined as the rate of interest per annum from time to time published in the money rates section of The Wall Street Journal or any successor publication. Interest is payable monthly and compounded monthly based on a 360-day year. Borrowings under the 2018 Loan Agreement are secured by a security interest in all goods, equipment, inventory, contract rights or rights to payment of money, leases, license agreements, franchise agreements, general intangibles, accounts, documents, instruments, chattel paper, cash, deposit accounts, fixtures, letters of credit rights, securities, and all other investment property, supporting obligations, and financial assets, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, wherever located. In connection with the execution of the 2018 Loan Agreement, the Company entered into a 2018 warrant agreement which granted certain warrants to SVB (the “Warrants”). The Warrants were issued in one initial tranche on December 25, 2018 and three subsequent tranches in 2019 each time the Company made an additional debt draw under the 2018 Loan Agreement. Pursuant to the warrant agreement, SVB has the option to purchase an aggregate of 480,520 shares of Class A common stock. The warrants have a weighted average exercise price of $ 0.24 per share and are exercisable for a period of 10 years. The Company accounted for all the Warrants issued as equity instruments since the Warrants are indexed to the Company’s common shares and meet the criteria for classification in stockholders’ equity. In July 2021, SVB exercised all the outstanding Warrants and the Company issued 472,113 shares of Company's Class A Common Stock, net of exercise price. The issuances under the 2018 Term Loan and 2018 Equipment Advances are as follows: in thousands Principal Term Loan $ 3,000 Equipment Advances – January 31, 2019 Issuance 2,410 Equipment Advances – April 29, 2019 Issuance 2,428 Equipment Advances – June 27, 2019 Issuance 2,162 Total $ 10,000 Paycheck Protection Program Note (“PPP Note”) On April 20, 2020, the Company received loan proceeds of approximately $ 4.9 million under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”), offered by the U.S. Small Business Administration (the “SBA”) pursuant to Title 1 of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”). The PPP Note proceeds were available to be used to pay for payroll costs, including salaries, commissions, and similar compensation, group health care benefits, and paid leaves, rent and utilities, and mortgage interest payments. The PPP Note was subject to forgiveness to the extent proceeds were used for payroll costs, including payments required to continue group health care benefits, and certain rent, utility, and mortgage interest expenses (collectively, “Qualifying Expenses”), pursuant to the terms and limitations of the PPP Note. The Company used the PPP Note amount intended for Qualifying Expenses. In the first quarter of the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company submitted a forgiveness application to its lender seeking full forgiveness of the PPP Note. On August 24, 2021, the Company received notice from the lender that the Small Business Administration has approved the application for forgiveness of the PPP Note in the full amount. For the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company recorded a gain of $ 4.9 million related to forgiveness of PPP Note in other income, net within the Consolidated Statement of Operations. No such gain was recorded for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019. Convertible Notes Issuance of Convertible Notes From June 2019 through July 2019, the Company issued $ 14.8 million of convertible promissory notes (the “June 2019 Convertible Notes”) to certain investors. The June 2019 Convertible Notes mature on June 10, 2021 and accrue interest at 2.37 % or 2.13 %, compounded annually on basis of 360-days year of twelve 30-day months. Principal and any accrued but unpaid interest are due and payable at maturity. From October 2019 through December 2020, the Company issued $ 45.0 million of convertible promissory notes (the “October 2019 Convertible Notes” and collectively with the June 2019 Convertible Notes, the “Convertible Notes”) to certain investors. The October 2019 Convertible Notes mature on October 1, 2021 and accrue interest at 1.69 %, 1.59 % or 1.85%, compounded annually on basis of 360-days year of twelve 30-day months. Principal and any accrued but unpaid interest are due and payable at maturity. Pursuant to the terms of the Convertible Notes, the Convertible Notes will convert, including outstanding principal and any accrued but unpaid interest, with no fractional shares and proper notice based on the below: Maturity : Upon maturity, convert into the shares issued in the then most recent Preferred Stock financing at the lowest price per share of such shares in such financing at the option of the holders. Next Equity Financing: Upon the Company’s next equity financing yielding at least $ 20 million in a single transaction for the June 2019 Convertible Notes and $ 50 million in a single transaction for the October 2019 Convertible Notes (“Next Equity Financing”), the Convertible Notes shall automatically convert into those equity securities issued at a price lesser of 80 % of the qualified financing price or a per share price reflecting a pre-money, fully-diluted valuation of $ 350 million for the June 2019 Convertible Notes and $ 450 million for the October 2019 Convertible Notes. Change of Control : In the event of a change of control, immediately prior, the note shall convert into cash equal to 1.5 times the outstanding principal and any accrued but unpaid interest or at the option of the holder convert into common stock at a price per share equal to the lesser of 80% of the change of control price per common stock or a per share price reflecting a pre-money, fully-diluted valuation of $ 500 million for the June 2019 Convertible Notes and $ 450 million for the October 2019 Convertible Notes. Upon maturity, the holders of the Convertible Notes have the option to extend the maturity date for another 2 years. The Company determined that the contingent share-settled redemption upon the Next Equity Financing or Change of Control at 80% of the next round price and the contingent redemption upon Change of Control at 1.5 times of the outstanding principal and accrued interest were embedded derivatives (“Redemption Obligation”) that required bifurcation as derivative liabilities as well as upon issuance a reduction in the carrying value of the underlying note. The Company measures the bifurcated compound derivative at fair value based on significant inputs not observable in the market, which causes them to be classified as Level 3 measurements within the fair value hierarchy. Redemption Obligation derivatives are determined to be material at each issuance date. The bifurcated derivative was bifurcated from each note at the amount of the fixed premium, and the expected premium based on likelihood of the Next Equity Financing at different dates which result in differing levels of premium. The bifurcated embedded derivative had a zero fair value as of December 31, 2020 and through the settlement of the Convertible Notes in January 2021. The following tables present changes in fair value of the embedded compound derivative (associated with the Company’s Convertible Notes) for the year ended December 30, 2021 and 2020: Embedded Derivative in Convertible Notes in thousands 2021 2020 Balance – December 31 $ — $ 4,698 Additions — 3,447 Measurement adjustments — ( 8,145 ) Balance – December 31 $ — $ — The measurement adjustments are recognized in other income, net within the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. To determine the fair value of the embedded derivatives, the Company used an income approach considering potential future conversion and calibrated a discount rate to be consistent with the price paid at Issuance. The income approach considered assumptions including preferred stock values, volatilities, risk free rates, and discount rates/additional discount factors calibrated to be consistent with the price paid at Issuance. Additionally, other key assumptions included probability and timing of financing or the note remaining outstanding through maturity. The following table sets forth the range of inputs for the significant assumptions utilized to determine the fair value of embedded derivatives at each issuance: At Issuance June 2019 October 2019 Q4 2020 Preferred stock value $ 1.30 $ 1.30 $ 1.98 – 2.32 Risk free rates 1.8 % – 2.0 % 0.9 % – 1.8 % 0.1 % Risk-adjusted discount rate 15.0 % 15.0 % 15.0 % Additional discount factor 0.1 % – 0.9 % 0.9 % – 4.7 % 4.7 % Preferred volatility 15.3 % 15.3 % 20 % Prior to the adoption of ASU 2020-06 on January 1, 2021 and upon issuance of the Convertible Notes, the Company assessed whether an immediate beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”) existed with regards to the non-contingent conversion option upon maturity to convert the Convertible Notes into the shares issued in the most recent Preferred Stock financing (i.e., Series B Preferred Stock) at the issuance of the Convertible Notes. A beneficial conversion feature exists when convertible instruments are issued with an initial “effective conversion price” that is less than the fair value of the underlying stock. The Company determined that there was no BCF associated with such conversion feature upon issuance except for the Convertible Notes issued on October 29, 2020, November 12, 2020, November 16, 2020, November 19, 2020, December 1, 2020 and December 11, 2020 (“Q4 2020 Convertible Notes”). At the commitment dates, the Company determined the conversion feature related to the Q4 2020 Convertible Notes to be beneficial to the investors. The following table summarizes the calculation of the BCFs as of the issuance dates of these Q4 2020 Convertible Notes, which continued to be presented in additional paid in capital as of December 31, 2020: As of Effective Fair Value of Number of Shares upon Conversion (pre-combination) BCF in thousands October 29, 2020 $ 1.33 $ 2.32 1,125,281 $ 1,113 November 12, 2020 1.33 2.32 4,456,114 4,407 November 16, 2020 1.33 2.32 871,378 862 November 19, 2020 1.33 2.32 2,504,466 2,476 December 1, 2020 1.33 2.32 120,030 119 December 11, 2020 1.33 2.32 750,188 742 Total $ 9,719 Prior to the adoption of ASU 2020-06 on January 1, 2021, the Company recorded a total BCF of $ 9.7 million, representing the intrinsic value of the in-the-money portion of the non-contingent conversion option upon maturity, in equity, with an offsetting reduction to the carrying amount of the Q4 2020 Convertible Notes as a debt discount upon issuance. The equity component of $ 9.7 million was not re-measured as long as it continued to meet the conditions for equity classification. The debt discounts resulting from the accounting for a beneficial conversion option and the fair value of embedded derivative at issuance were amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the Q4 2020 Convertible Notes. For all other Convertible Notes, the debt discount resulting from the bifurcation of the embedded derivatives at issuance was amortized into interest expense using the effective interest method over the term of the Convertible Notes. All Convertible Notes were classified as current liabilities as of December 31, 2020. On January 1, 2021, the Company elected to adopt ASU 2020-06 based on a modified retrospective transition method. Under such transition, prior-period information has not been retrospectively adjusted. In accounting for the Q4 2020 Convertible Notes after the adoption of ASU 2020-06, the BCFs and unamortized debt discount associated with the recognition of such BCFs were derecognized from the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of January 1, 2021, resulting in a $ 9.0 million increase in the carrying amount of the Q4 2020 Convertible Notes, a $ 9.7 million decrease in additional paid in capital, and a $ 0.7 million cumulative decrease to the opening balance of its accumulated deficit as of January 1, 2021, net of tax effects. The issuances under the Convertible Notes are as follows: Maturity Date of June 10, 2021 in thousands Principal Interest Rate June 10, 2019 $ 12,950 2.37 % June 12, 2019 500 2.37 % June 13, 2019 400 2.37 % July 19, 2019 235 2.13 % July 25, 2019 750 2.13 % Total $ 14,835 Maturity Date of October 01, 2021 in thousands Principal Interest Rate October 1, 2019 $ 14,000 1.69 % February 6, 2020 6,000 1.59 % February 12, 2020 5,000 1.59 % February 28, 2020 6,900 1.59 % October 29, 2020 1,500 1.85 % November 12, 2020 5,940 1.85 % November 16, 2020 1,162 1.85 % November 19, 2020 3,338 1.85 % December 1. 2020 160 1.85 % December 11, 2020 1,000 1.85 % Total $ 45,000 Settlement of Convertible Notes On January 28, 2021, the Company entered a stock purchase agreement with certain investors to close the issuance of Series C convertible preferred stock at a cash purchase price of $ 6.62 per share and settle all outstanding Convertible Notes through Series C convertible preferred stock at a conversion price of $ 1.33 or $ 1.71 per share (“Series C Financing”). The Company issued 38,323,292 shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Shares (pre-combination) for conversion of outstanding Convertible Notes of $ 61.0 million. The June 2019 Convertible Notes were settled pursuant to the contractual conversion upon the Next Equity Financing feature with such financing yielding at least $ 20 million in a single transaction. The Company credited the net carrying amount of the June 2019 Convertible Notes of $ 14.5 million, including any unamortized debt discount, to Series C convertible preferred stock with no gain or loss recognized. The October 2019 Convertible Notes were settled based on negotiated terms between the Company and the note holders as the Series C Financing did not meet the definition of Next Equity Financing for the October 2019 Convertible Notes. The Company assessed the economics of the settlement of the October 2019 Convertible Notes and concluded that it should be treated as a privately negotiated debt redemption/settlement transaction where debt extinguishment accounting should be applied. Therefore, the Company derecognized the net carrying amount, including any unamortized debt discount, of the October 2019 Convertible Notes of $ 42.6 million and recognized the Series C convertible preferred stock issued specifically to settle the October 2019 Convertible Notes at fair value as the reacquisition consideration. Accrued and unpaid interest of $ 0.6 million was settled and not paid in cash and therefore it was included in calculating the extinguishment loss. The difference between the net carrying amount of the October 2019 Convertible Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, and the reacquisition consideration was recorded as a loss on extinguishment within other income, net in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The Company issued in aggregate 26,727,308 shares of Series C convertible preferred stock (pre-combination) to settle the October 2019 Convertible Notes. The fair value of the Series C convertible preferred stock was determined to be $ 176.9 million using the cash purchase price of $ 6.62 per share on January 28, 2021. These October 2019 Convertible Notes had a carrying amount plus accrued and unpaid interest of $ 43.2 million upon settlement. The difference of $ 133.8 million was recognized as a loss on extinguishment on the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2021. Bridge Loan On May 20, 2021, the Company entered into a short-term promissory note (the “Bridge Loan”) with Pendrell as the lender, pursuant to which Pendrell agreed to make available to the Company up to $ 20.6 million in borrowings. Pendrell is the parent of X-icity Holdings Corporation, the sponsor of Holicity. The interest rate on the Bridge Loan borrowings is a fixed rate of 5.00 % per annum. However, if repaid in full in connection with the closing of the Business Combination, then no interest shall be due and payable. The Company is required to pay an upfront fee in the amount of 1.00 % of the principal amount and an end of term fee in the amount of 2.00 % of the principal amount. The funds drawn on the Bridge Loan may be prepaid by the Company at any time. The Bridge Loan matures upon the earliest of (a) the closing of the Business Combination, (b) 60 days following the abandonment of the Business Combination and (c) the date when the commitment amount is otherwise paid in full or accelerated pursuant to the terms of the Bridge Loan. Under the terms of the Bridge Loan, the Company borrowed $ 10.0 million in June 2021, and subsequently paid off the outstanding principal and end of term fee totaling $ 10.4 million on June 30, 2021.

Disclosure Text Block [Abstract]
Warrant Liabilities Text Block	Note 8 — Warrant Liabilities As part of Holicity’s initial public offering ("IPO") in 2020, Holicity issued 9,999,976 warrants to third party investors, and each whole warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of the Company's Class A common stock at an exercise price of $ 11.50 per share (the “Public Warrants”). Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, Holicity completed the private sale of 5,333,333 warrants to Holicity’s sponsor (“Private Placement Warrants”) and each Private Placement Warrant allows the sponsor to purchase one share of the Company's Class A common stock at $ 11.50 per share. The Private Placement Warrants and the shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants are not transferable, assignable or salable until after the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the Private Placement Warrants are exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis, at the holder’s option, and are non-redeemable so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrant. The Company accounts for Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants as liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in FASB ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity ("ASC 480") and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging ("ASC 815"). Specifically, the exercise of the Public and Private Placement Warrants may be settled in cash upon the occurrence of a tender offer or exchange that involves 50 % or more of the Company’s Class A shareholders. Because not all of the Company’s shareholders need to participate in such tender offer or exchange to trigger the potential cash settlement and the Company does not control the occurrence of such an event, the Company concluded that the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants do not meet the conditions to be classified in equity. Since the Public and Private Placement Warrants meet the definition of a derivative under ASC 815, the Company recorded these warrants as liabilities on the balance sheet at fair value upon the closing of the Business Combination, with subsequent changes in their respective fair values recognized in the consolidated statement of operations at each reporting date. On November 26, 2021, the Company issued a notice of redemption to redeem all of its Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants ("Redeemable Warrants") outstanding as of December 27, 2021. Under the Warrant Agreement, the Company was entitled to redeem not less than all of the outstanding Redeemable Warrants at a Redemption Price of $ 0.10 per Redeemable Warrant, provided that the last reported sales price of the Class A common stock has been at least $ 10.00 per share on the trading day prior to the date on which notice of redemption is given, and further provided that there is an effective registration statement covering the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the Redeemable Warrants and a current prospectus relating thereto, available through the Redemption Date. Under the notice of redemption, Company required holders of the Redeemable Warrants to exercise their Warrants on a cashless basis, (the “Cashless Exercise Option”) and holders were not permitted to exercise Redeemable Warrants by paying the $ 11.50 per share exercise price in cash. Pursuant to the Cashless Exercise Option, an exercising holder of the Redeemable Warrants received a number of shares of Class A common stock (the “Exercise Shares”) equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the product of the number of shares of Class A common stock underlying the Redeemable Warrants, multiplied by the excess of the fair market value of the Class A common stock over the exercise price of the Redeemable Warrants by the fair market value. Since the fair market value was less than the exercise price of the Redeemable Warrants, no Exercise Shares would have been issued if a holder would have elected to exercise its Redeemable Warrant pursuant to the Cashless Exercise Option. Alternatively, holders of the Redeemable Warrants were entitled to elect to receive, in lieu of the redemption price or exercising their Redeemable Warrants pursuant to the Cashless Exercise Option, 0.2560374 shares of Class A common stock for each Redeemable Warrants. In connection with the redemption, the holders of 9,413,895 Public Warrants and 5,333,333 Private Placement Warrants elected to receive, in lieu of the redemption price, an aggregate 3,775,709 shares of Class A common stock at 0.2560374 shares of Class A Common Stock per Warrant. A total of 586,075 Public Warrants remained unexercised as of December 27, 2021 and the Company redeemed the Public Warrants for a redemption price of $ 0.10 per Redeemable Warrant. The Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants were remeasured to fair value as of the exercise or redemption date, resulting in a gain of $ 25.7 million for year ended December 31, 2021, classified within other income, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

For the year ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized no provision for income taxes consistent with the losses incurred and the valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets. Effective Tax Rate Reconciliation between the effective tax rate on income from continuing operations and the statutory tax rate of 21 % is as follows: December 31, 2021 2020 2019 U.S. federal provision at statutory rate 21.0 % 21.0 % 21.0 % Tax credits 1.1 1.0 2.2 Non-deductible executive compensation ( 1.8 ) — — Stock-based compensation 0.1 — ( 0.1 ) Convertible notes ( 10.9 ) ( 1.6 ) — Fair value adjustment 2.5 2.5 — Change in valuation allowance ( 11.6 ) ( 22.8 ) ( 22.3 ) Other ( 0.3 ) ( 0.1 ) ( 0.8 ) Effective tax rate 0.1 % 0.0 % 0.0 % Deferred Taxes The Company’s deferred income tax assets and liabilities are as follows: As of December 31, in thousands 2021 2020 Deferred tax assets: Net operating loss carry forward $ 75,750 $ 45,768 Tax credits 10,005 4,403 Stock-based compensation 1,807 35 Operating lease liabilities 2,073 — Intangibles — 307 Accruals and reserves 4,350 362 Total deferred tax assets 93,985 50,875 Deferred tax liabilities: Fixed assets ( 709 ) ( 787 ) Right-of-use assets ( 2,119 ) — Intangible assets ( 2,534 ) — Total deferred tax liabilities ( 5,362 ) ( 787 ) Net deferred tax assets before valuation allowance 88,623 50,088 Valuation allowance ( 88,623 ) ( 50,088 ) Net deferred tax assets (liabilities) $ — $ — The Company assesses the realizability of deferred tax assets based on the available evidence, including a history of taxable income and estimates of future taxable income. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, the Company considers whether it is more likely than not that all or some portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized. Due to the losses the Company generated in the current and prior years, the Company believes it is not more likely than not that all of the deferred tax assets can be realized. Accordingly, the Company established and recorded a full valuation allowance on its net deferred tax assets. The Company's valuation allowance increased by $ 38.5 million and $ 20.7 million during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had $ 292.6 million of U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards, of which $ 272.5 million will be carried forward indefinitely for U.S. federal tax purposes and $ 20.1 million will expire beginning in 2036. In addition, the Company has $ 211.7 million of state net operating loss carryforwards available to reduce future taxable income, if not utilized, will begin to expire beginning in 2036. As of December 31, 2021, the Company also has federal and California research and development tax credit carryforwards of $ 8.6 million and $ 7.7 million, respectively. The federal research credit carryforwards will begin to expire in 2036 and California research credits can be carried forward indefinitely. Utilization of the net operating loss and credit carryforwards may be subject to a substantial annual limitation due to the ownership change limitations provided by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and similar state provisions. The annual limitation may result in the expiration of net operating losses and tax credits before utilization. The events that may cause ownership changes include, but are not limited to, a cumulative stock ownership change of greater than 50 % over a three-year period. On December 27, 2020, the “Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021” (the “CAA”) was signed into law. The CAA includes provisions meant to clarify and modify certain items put forth in CARES Act, while providing aid to businesses affected by the pandemic. The CAA allows deductions for expenses paid for by Paycheck Protection Program and Economic Injury Disaster Loan (“EIDL”) Program, clarifies forgiveness of EIDL advances, and other business provisions. The Company analyzed the provisions of the CAA and have appropriately accounted for the deductible costs associated with the PPP proceeds. Unrecognized Tax Benefits The Company accrues for uncertain tax positions identified, which are not deemed more likely than not to be sustained if challenged, and recognizes interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. The Company recorded no amounts of accrued interest and accrued penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019. The following is a tabular reconciliation of the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits: Year Ended December 31 in thousands 2021 2020 2019 Unrecognized tax benefits as of the beginning of the year $ 4,842 $ 3,543 $ 1,569 Increases related to prior year tax provisions (acquisition) 487 — — Decrease related to prior year tax provisions ( 1,112 ) — — Increase related to current year tax provisions 897 1,299 1,974 Statute lapse — — — Unrecognized tax benefits as of the end of the year $ 5,114 $ 4,842 $ 3,543 The unrecognized gross tax benefits would not reduce the annual effective tax rate if recognized because the Company has recorded a valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets. As of December 31, 2021, the Company does not believe there will be a significant increase or decrease of unrecognized tax benefits within the next twelve months. The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal and various state jurisdictions. All tax returns will remain open for examination by the federal and state authorities for three and four years, respectively, from the date of utilization of any net operating loss or credits. There have been no examinations of our income tax returns by any tax authority.

Equity [Abstract]
Convertible Preferred Stock	Note 13 — Convertible Preferred Stock Convertible Preferred Stock From pre-combination Astra’s inception until the consummation of the Business Combination, approximately $ 100.2 million of cash capital contributions was raised, net of issuance costs, through the issuance of three rounds of convertible preferred equity. The three classes of convertible preferred stock of pre-combination Astra are: Series A convertible preferred stock, Series B convertible preferred stock and Series C convertible preferred stock (collectively, the “Convertible Preferred Stock”). Immediately before the consummation of the Business Combination, the Convertible Preferred Stock of pre-combination Astra consisted of: Series Shares Outstanding (pre-combination Astra) Liquidation Conversion Annual A 65,780,540 $ 0.243233 $ 0.243233 $ 0.019459 B 70,713,123 1.333008 1.333008 0.106640 C 50,483,785 6.620970 6.620970 0.529680 Total 186,977,448 Upon the consummation of the Business Combination in June 2021, 186,977,448 shares of Convertible Preferred Stock (pre-combination Astra) converted into 124,340,003 shares of Class A common stock of the Company. The Company no longer had Convertible Preferred Stock authorized, issued or outstanding subsequent to the close of Business Combination in June 2021. The terms and rights of the Convertible Preferred Stock described below represent the terms and rights of the Convertible Preferred Stock prior to the closing of the Business Combination. Voting Rights and Dividends Each holder of the Convertible Preferred Stock is entitled to a number of votes equal to the number of whole shares of Class A common Stock into which such holder’s shares are convertible as defined in the amended and restated certificate of incorporation. The holders of outstanding Convertible Preferred Stock are entitled to receive defined dividends per share, when, if, and as declared by the board of directors. These rights are not cumulative, and no right accrues by reason of the fact that dividends on said shares are not declared in any period, nor any undeclared or unpaid dividend bears or accrues interest. After payment of such dividends, and additional dividends or distributions are distributed to all holders of Common Stock, Founders Convertible Preferred Stock and Convertible Preferred Stock in proportion to the number of shares of common stock what would be held on an “as converted” basis. Liquidation In the event of a liquidation event (as defined), the holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, prior and in preference to any distribution of any of the assets of the Company to the holders of Founders Convertible Preferred Stock and Common Stock, by reason of their ownership, an amount per share equal to the liquidation price per share for each outstanding share of the Convertible Preferred Stock, plus any declared but unpaid dividends thereon to the date fixed for such distribution. If the assets of the Company legally available for distribution are insufficient to permit the payment of the full preferential amounts to the holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock, then the entire assets available for distribution to stockholders are distributed ratably among the holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock in proportion to the preferential amount each such holder is otherwise entitled to receive. Upon the completion of the distribution to the holders of Series A, Series B and Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, the holders of outstanding shares of Founders Convertible Preferred Stock and Common Stock are entitled to receive all of the remaining assets of the Company pro rata based on the number of shares of Common Stock held by each assuming conversion of all such Founders Convertible Preferred Stock into Common Stock. Each of the Convertible Preferred Stock shares are conditionally puttable by the holders upon Deemed Liquidation events, which includes a change of control or a sale of substantially all the Company’s assets. The Company determined that triggering events that could result in a Deemed Liquidation are not solely within the control of the Company. Therefore, the Convertible Preferred Stock is classified outside of permanent equity (i.e., temporary equity). The Convertible Preferred stock is subject to standard protective provisions, none of which provide creditor rights. As of December 31, 2020, the Company was not required to remeasure the Convertible Preferred Stock to the redemption value as none of the Deemed Liquidation events were probable at the time. On January 28, 2021, concurrent with Series C Financing, the Company amended its certificate of incorporation to add a merger with a special purpose acquisition company (“SPAC Transaction”) as one of the defined Deemed Liquidation events. In addition, upon triggering of the Deemed Liquidation events, the holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock are entitled to receive the greater of their liquidation preference per share and the as converted value per share. As of March 31, 2021, the Company assessed the probability of a SPAC Transaction to be probable and therefore, the Convertible Preferred Stock are considered probable of becoming redeemable. Subsequent measurement of Convertible Preferred Stock is then required for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The Company elected to apply the current redemption value method to measure the redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock. Under this method, changes in the redemption value are recognized immediately as they occur and the carrying value of the Convertible Preferred Stock is adjusted to the redemption value at the end of each reporting date. In the absence of retained earnings, adjustments to redemption value were recorded against additional paid-in capital, if any, and then to accumulated deficit. As of March 31, 2021, adjustments to the carrying amount of the Convertible Preferred Stock of $ 1.1 billion, reflecting the estimated redemption value of $ 7.18 per share as of March 31, 2021, are treated as deemed dividends and are recognized against additional paid-in capital and accumulated deficit on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. On the Closing Date of the Business Combination, all outstanding Convertible Preferred Stock converted into Class A common stock of the Company, therefore, the Company applied conversion accounting to derecognize the existing carrying amount of the Convertible Preferred Stock and increased additional paid-in capital. Conversion The holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock shall have conversion rights as follows: Right to Convert : Each of the Company’s Convertible Preferred Stock shall be convertible at the option of the holder thereof into a number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Class A common Stock as is determined by dividing the liquidation preference by the conversion price for each series, respectively. Automatic Conversion : Each share of the Convertible Preferred Stock shall automatically be converted into fully paid and nonassessable shares of Class A common Stock, at the then-effective conversion rates upon the earlier of (i) the vote or written consent of holders of at least a majority of the voting power represented by the then-outstanding shares of Convertible Preferred Stock, voting as a separate class on an as-converted basis or (ii) the closing of a firm commitment underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, covering the offer and sale of common stock at an offering price of not less than $ 19.9 per share and with aggregate gross proceeds to the Company (prior to deduction of underwriters’ commissions and expenses) of not less than $ 30.0 million. Redemption Convertible Preferred Stock are not mandatorily redeemable.

Share-based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]
Share-based Payment Arrangement	Note 15 — Stock-based Compensation Stock-based incentive awards are provided to employees under the terms of various Astra equity incentive plans. 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan In June 2021, the Board of Directors approved the 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”), which reserved 36.8 million shares of Class A common stock for issuance for awards in accordance with the terms of the 2021 Plan. In addition, the pool increases on January 1 of each year from 2022 to 2031 by the lesser of (i) 5 % of the sum of number of shares of (x) Class A common stock and (y) Class B common stock outstanding as of the close of business on the immediately preceding December 31 and (ii) the number of shares of Class A common stock as determined by the Board. The purpose of the 2021 Plan is to advance the Company’s interests by providing for the grant to employees, directors, consultants and advisors of stock and stock-based awards. As of December 31, 2021, 9.1 million shares remain available for issuance under the plan. 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan In June 2021, the Board of Directors approved the 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “2021 ESPP”) to reserve 5 million shares of Class A common stock for issuance for awards in accordance with the terms of the ESPP. In addition, the number of shares reserved for issuance will ultimately increase on January 1 of each year from 2022 to 2031 by the lesser of (i) 1 % of the sum of number of shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock outstanding as of the close of business on the immediately preceding December 31 and (ii) the number of shares of Class A common stock as determined by the Board. The purpose of the ESPP is to enable eligible employees to use payroll deductions to purchase shares of Class A common stock and thereby acquire an interest in the company. Eligible employees are offered shares through a 24 -month offering period, which consists of four consecutive 6-month purchase periods. Employees may purchase a limited amount of shares of our stock at a discount of up to 15 % of the lesser of the fair market value at the beginning of the offering period or the end of each 6-month purchase period. No shares were issued under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan during the year ended December 31, 2021. As of December 31, 2021, 5 million shares remain available for issuance under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had $ 0.5 million of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to the ESPP. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 0.8 years. 2016 Equity Incentive Plan In 2016, pre-combination Astra adopted the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2016 Plan”). Under this Plan, the Board of Directors or a committee appointed by the Board of Directors is authorized to provide stock-based compensation in the form of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, and other performance or value-based awards within parameters set forth in the Plan to employees, directors, and non-employee consultants. In connection with the Business Combination, the Company assumed the 2016 Plan upon closing. Each outstanding and unexercised option (“Astra Option”) was converted, at the exchange ratio established in the BCA, into an option (“New Astra Option”) to acquire shares of the Company’s Class A common stock with the same terms and conditions as applicable to the Astra Option immediately prior to the Business Combination. As of December 31, 2021, there were no shares available for issuance under the plan. The following table summarizes stock-based compensation expense that the Company recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019: For The Year in thousands 2021 2020 2019 Research and development $ 12,930 $ 339 $ 190 Sales and marketing 220 — — General and administrative 26,593 31,863 624 Stock-based compensation expense $ 39,743 $ 32,202 $ 814 As of December 31, 2021, the Company had capitalized $ 0.3 million of stock-based compensation in inventories. No stock-based compensation was capitalized as of December 31, 2020 and 2019. On November 22, 2021, under the 2021 Plan, the Company's compensation committee issued 1,047,115 PSUs to the employees of Apollo who joined Astra. PSUs are subject to certain performance-based and service-based vesting conditions and would vest over four years with 25% of awards vesting on July 1, 2022, and the remaining 75% vesting quarterly over the remaining 12 quarters beginning on November 15, 2022 only for the portion of PSUs that is eligible to become vested which will be determined based upon timely satisfaction of performance conditions. The number of PSUs vested will be determined by multiplying the total number of PSUs granted by the percentage of milestones achieved and by the percentage of PSUs that satisfy the time-based vesting condition on such time-vesting date. Certain performance conditions for PSUs are subjective and the number of PSUs related to these performance conditions do not meet the criteria for the grant date. Accordingly, 523,557 PSUs related to the performance conditions that are not subjective are considered granted as of November 22, 2021. The remaining PSUs issued did not meet the grant date criteria as of December 31, 2021. The Company will re-assess at the end of each reporting period if any further PSUs has met the grant date criteria and account for it in the period in which it meets the grant date criteria. As of December 31, 2021, the Company assessed the probability of success for the performance conditions that are not subjective and determined that the Company has achieved these performance conditions within the requisite period. Therefore, the Company recognized $ 0.5 million compensation costs related to PSUs for the year ended December 31, 2021. On September 20, 2021, under the 2021 Plan, the Company’s compensation committee granted 3,972,185 restricted stock units (“RSUs”), 3,426,094 time-based stock options and 13,016,178 performance stock options ("PSOs") to its executive officers. RSUs and time-based stock options granted have service-based vesting conditions only. The service conditions vary for each executive officer and is based on their continued service to the Company. Option holders have a 10-year period to exercise their options before options expire. Forfeitures are recognized in the period of occurrence and stock-based compensation costs are recognized based on grant-date fair value as RSUs and time-based stock options vest. Refer to disclosures below for the Company’s RSUs and option activities for the year ended December 31, 2021. PSOs, only eligible to the executive officers of the Company, are subject to performance conditions as follows, and the milestones do not need to be achieved in any specific order or sequence: Milestone A: The Company has had a successful orbital delivery. Milestone B: The Company has had six orbital launches during a six consecutive month period. Milestone C: The Company has completed a prototype for a spacecraft that has achieved an orbital launch. Milestone D: The Company has conducted twenty-six orbital launches during a six consecutive month period. Milestone E: The Company has achieved an orbital launch for an aggregate of 100 spacecraft. These PSOs also require the volume weighted average share price for a period of thirty trading days meet certain share price thresholds before a milestone will be deemed achieved. After each milestone is achieved, 20 % of the PSOs will vest on the vesting date immediately following the date at which the price thresholds are met. For this purpose, a "vesting date" is February 15, May 15, August 15 and November 15 of any applicable year. The milestones must be achieved over a period of approximately five years , with the earliest vesting date of November 15, 2022 and the last vesting date no later than November 15, 2026, if all vesting conditions are met. No unvested portion of the PSOs shall vest after November 15, 2026. As of December 31, 2021, the Company assessed the probability of success for the five milestones mentioned above and determined that it is probable that the Company will achieve Milestone A and Milestone B within the requisite period. Therefore, the Company recognized $ 5.6 million compensation costs related to PSOs for the year ended December 31, 2021. As of December 31, 2021, we had unrecognized stock-based compensation expense of $ 32.8 million for the milestones that were not considered probable of achievement. In April 2021, the Board of Directors has approved the acceleration of the vesting of 1,900,000 pre-combination Astra stock options issued to two executive officers: Kelyn Brannon and Martin Attiq, on December 27, 2020. The Company recognized the remaining stock-based compensation expense of $ 7.2 million in its Consolidated Statements of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2021. In February 2021, the Board of Directors approved the acceleration in vesting of 206,250 pre-combination Astra stock options that were issued to one employee on May 15, 2020. The remaining unvested options were fully vested upon acceleration. The Company recorded a $ 1.4 million stock-based compensation expense related to the modification for the year ended December 31, 2021. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had $ 130.3 million of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to all of the Company's stock-based awards. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2 .93 years. Secondary Sales In January 2021 , concurrent with Series C Financing, two executive officers, Chris Kemp, founder and Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), and Adam London, founder and Chief Technology Officer (“CTO”), entered into stock purchase agreements with certain investors including ACME SPV AS, LLC to sell 3,775,879 and 2,265,529 shares, respectively, of Founders Convertible Preferred Stock at purchase prices in excess of the estimated fair value at the time of the transactions (“January 2021 Secondary Sales”) to certain investors. Upon the sale, the Founders Convertible Preferred Stock automatically converted into Series C Convertible Preferred Stock. The Company’s board member, Scott Stanford, is a member of ACME SPV AS, LLC and the Company facilitated the January 2021 Secondary Sales. As a result, for the year ended December 31, 2021 the Company recorded a total of $ 8.2 million in stock-based compensation expense for the difference between the price paid by these investors and the estimated fair value of the Founders Convertible Preferred Stock on the date of the transaction. In April 2021, four executive officers, Chris Kemp, CEO, Adam London, CTO, Kelyn Brannon, Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), and Martin Attiq, Chief Business Officer (“CBO”), entered into stock purchase agreements with new investors to sell 2,534,793 , 865,560 , 1,500,000 and 400,000 shares, respectively, of Class A common stock of pre-combination Astra, at a purchase price per share of $ 5.66 (“April 2021 Secondary Sales”). No additional stock-based compensation expense was recognized for the year ended December 31, 2021 as the purchase price was below fair market value of Class A common stock of pre-combination Astra at the time of the sales. 2020 Awards to Founders For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company granted 7,000,000 shares of Class A common stock of pre-combination Astra to its founders and key executives in recognition of services previously rendered. Prior to that time, since the Company’s inception, the Company’s two founders had not received refresh grants aside from the initial restricted stock awards issued in 2016. On December 27, 2020, the Board of Directors granted a total of 7,000,000 shares of Class A common stock of pre-combination Astra to Chris Kemp, Founder and CEO, and Adam London, Founder and CTO. All 7,000,000 shares of Class A common stock of pre-combination Astra were fully vested upon issuance. Each share reflects one fully vested Class A common stock of pre-combination Astra upon issuance and a grant date fair value of $ 4.49 per share. The grant date fair value was determined by applying the probability-weighted expected return method (“PWERM Method”), which assumes various future outcomes to determine the value of the various equity securities based on probability-weighted present value. Under the PWERM Method, the Company considered potential scenarios related to (i) a merger transaction closing in the second quarter of 2021 and (ii) remaining privately owned for approximately 1.5 years. The following assumptions are utilized to determine the fair value of Class A common stock: Merger Transaction Remaining Private Time to event (in years) (1) 0.38 1.50 Scenario probability (2) 60 % 40 % Discount for lack of marketability (3) 10 % 25 % Market value per share (4) $ 6.62 $ 3.04 Grant-date fair value $ 5.96 $ 2.28 ____________ (1) The time to event represents the estimated length of time to a merger or liquidation event . (2) Scenario probability was estimated based on the Company’s merger or liquidation event assumptions on the valuation date. (3) Discount for lack of marketability related to the merger transaction scenario was utilized to account for industry-standard lock period of founders and existing employees. Benchmark study approach and securities-based approaches are utilized to estimate the discount for lack of marketability for the remaining private scenario. (4) The Company has assumed the cash purchase price for Series C preferred stock of $ 6.62 represents an arm’s length fair market value per share price of equity. The value of the remaining private scenario was determined based on back-solve analysis by reconciling to the Series C preferred stock purchase price. The grant date fair value of $ 31.4 million was recognized as compensation expense within general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2020. Stock Options Awards The following is a summary of stock option activity for the year ended December 31, 2021: No. of Weighted- Average Exercise Price Weighted- Average Aggregate Intrinsic Outstanding – December 31, 2020 8,546,017 $ 0.85 8.6 $ 52,120,105 Granted 16,442,272 9.04 9.7 Exercised ( 3,883,523 ) 0.50 5.1 Forfeited ( 736,533 ) 1.08 — Expired ( 41,849 ) 0.52 — Outstanding – December 31, 2021 20,326,384 $ 7.52 9.4 $ 22,782,654 Unvested – December 31, 2021 18,524,426 8.17 9.5 11,701,061 Exercisable – December 31, 2021 1,801,958 0.78 7.8 11,081,593 Total intrinsic value of options exercised during the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019 was approximately $ 35.6 million, $ 18.7 million and $ 0.1 million, respectively. The company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing-model to calculate the grant date fair value of time based options and Monte Carlo simulation model to calculate the grant date fair value of PSOs. The following table summarizes the assumptions used in estimating the fair value of options granted in the year ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019: Time Based Options Performance Based Stock Options 2021 2020 2019 2021 Expected terms (years) (1) 6.00 5.78 5.84 2.50 - 4.40 Expected volatility (2) 68.8 % 47.4 % 34.0 % 68.9 % Risk-free interest rate (3) 0.98 % 0.29 % - 1.19 % 1.58 % - 2.54 % 1.31 % Expected dividend rate (4) - - - - Grant-date fair value $ 5.52 $ 1.12 $ 0.11 $ 4.66 ____________ (1) The expected term is the length of time the grant is expected to be outstanding before it is exercised or terminated. This number is calculated as the midpoint between the vesting term and the original contractual term (contractual period to exercise). If the option contains graded vesting, then the vesting term would be based on the vesting pattern. (2) Expected volatility, or the standard deviation of annualized returns, was calculated based on comparable companies’ reported volatilities. (3) Risk-free interest was obtained from US treasury notes for the expected terms noted as of the valuation date . (4) The Company has assumed a dividend yield of zero as it has no plans to declare dividends in the foreseeable future . Prior to the Business Combination, the fair value of the common stock underlying our stock-based awards was determined with input from management and corroboration from contemporaneous third-party valuations. Given the absence of a public trading market, we considered numerous objective and subjective facts to determine the fair value of the Company’s Common Stock at each date at which awards were approved. These factors included, but were not limited to (i) contemporaneous third-party valuations of Common Stock; (ii) the rights and preferences of Founders Convertible Preferred and Convertible Preferred relative to Common Stock; (iii) the lack of marketability of Common Stock; (iv) developments in the business; and (v) the likelihood of achieving a liquidity event, such as an IPO or sale of the Company, given prevailing market conditions. Restricted Stock Units Awards The following is a summary of restricted stock units for the year ended December 31, 2021: Number of RSUs Outstanding Weighted- Average Grant Date Fair Value Per Share Outstanding – December 31, 2020 — $ — Granted 11,421,216 9.20 Vested ( 585,623 ) 9.20 Forfeited ( 156,775 ) 9.08 Outstanding – December 31, 2021 10,678,818 $ 9.20 Total fair value as of the respective vesting dates of restricted stock units vested for the year ended December 31, 2021 was approximately $ 6.2 million. As of December 31, 2021, the aggregate intrinsic value of unvested restricted stock units was $ 74.0 million.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
Loss per Share	Note 16 — Loss per Share Founders Convertible Preferred Stock, Convertible Preferred Stock, and unvested Restricted Stock Awards (“RSA’s”) are participating securities in periods of income, as the Founders Convertible Preferred Stock, Convertible Preferred Stock, and unvested RSAs participate in undistributed earnings on an as-if-converted or as-vested basis. However, the Founders Convertible Preferred Stock, and Convertible Preferred Stock, do not share in losses. The Company computes earnings per share of Common Stock using the two-class method required for participating securities and does not apply the two-class method in periods of net loss. Basic and diluted earnings per share were the same for the years presented as the inclusion of all potential Common Stock outstanding would have been anti-dilutive. Earnings per share calculations for all periods prior to the Business Combination have been retrospectively restated to the equivalent number of shares reflecting the exchange ratio established in the BCA. Subsequent to the Business Combination, earnings per share was calculated based on weighted average number of shares of common stock then outstanding. The following tables set forth the computation of basic and diluted loss for the year ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019: For The Year Ended December 31, 2021 2020 2019 (in thousands, except share and per share amounts) Class A Class B Class A Class B Class A Class B Net loss attributed to common stockholders $ ( 175,951 ) $ ( 81,831 ) $ ( 8,120 ) $ ( 60,174 ) $ ( 5,989 ) $ ( 47,190 ) Adjustment to redemption value on Convertible Preferred Stock ( 690,559 ) ( 321,167 ) — — — — Net loss attributed to common stockholders $ ( 866,510 ) $ ( 402,998 ) $ ( 8,120 ) $ ( 60,174 ) $ ( 5,989 ) $ ( 47,190 ) Basic weighted average common shares outstanding 110,837,016 51,548,314 6,585,392 48,801,526 5,374,543 42,349,994 Dilutive weighted average common shares outstanding 110,837,016 51,548,314 6,585,392 48,801,526 5,374,543 42,349,994 Loss per share attributable to common stockholders: Basic and Diluted loss per share $ ( 7.82 ) $ ( 7.82 ) $ ( 1.23 ) $ ( 1.23 ) $ ( 1.11 ) $ ( 1.11 ) There were no preferred dividends declared or accumulated as of December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019. The following securities were not included in the computation of diluted shares outstanding because the effect would be anti-dilutive: As of December 31, 2021 2020 2019 Class A Class B Class A Class B Class A Class B Stock options 7,310,199 — 8,546,017 — 5,821,379 — RSUs 10,678,818 — — — — — Convertible Preferred Stock — — 103,070,786 — 103,070,786 — Warrants — — 480,520 — 480,520 — RSAs — — — — 62,345 1,928,500 Total 17,989,017 — 112,097,323 — 109,435,030 1,928,500 For the Convertible Notes, before settlement, for purposes of diluted earnings (loss) per share, the Company applies the if-converted method. However, because the adjustment to the numerator for interest expense was anti-dilutive, the Convertible Notes were not included in diluted earnings (loss) per share. Refer to Note 7 — Long-Term Debt for the key terms of the Convertible Notes.

Subsequent Events [Abstract]
Subsequent Events	Note 18 — Subsequent Events Since December 31, 2021, three legal proceedings have been filed in which the Company is named as a defendant or a nominal defendant: On February 9, 2022, a putative class action was filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York styled Artery v. Astra Space, Inc. et al., Case No. 1:22-cv-00737 (E.D.N.Y.) (the “Artery Action”). The complaint alleges that we and certain of our current and former officers violated provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 with respect to certain statements concerning our capabilities and business prospects. The complaint seeks unspecified damages on behalf of a purported class of purchasers of our securities between February 2, 2021 and December 29, 2021. On March 23, 2022, a second putative class action was filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York styled Riley v. Astra Space, Inc., et al., Case No. 1:22-cv-01591 (E.D.N.Y.) (the “Riley Action,” with the Artery Action, the “Securities Actions”). The Riley Action alleges the same claims, based upon similar facts, against the same defendants, and seeks the same damages. The Company expects that the two cases will be consolidated into a single action. Under the applicable statute, potential lead plaintiffs have until April 11, 2022, to file motions with the court to request appointment as lead plaintiff. Defendants intend to move to dismiss once the Court appoints a lead plaintiff and an amended complaint is filed. We believe that the Securities Actions are without merit and intend to defend them vigorously. Due to the early stage of the cases, neither the likelihood that a loss, if any, will be realized, nor an estimate of the possible loss or range of loss, if any, can be determined. On March 8, 2022, a stockholder derivative suit was filed in the United States District Court for the State of Delaware styled Meyer, et al., v. Kemp, et al., Case No. 22-cv-00308 (D. Del.). The complaint asserts claims against the current members of our board of directors and certain of our current and former officers, for breach of their fiduciary duty, waste, unjust enrichment, and contribution under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, based upon the conduct alleged in the Artery Action. The plaintiffs seek monetary damages in favor of the Company in an unstated amount, reformation of the Company’s corporate governance and internal procedures, restitution including a disgorgement of any compensation, profits or other benefits achieved, and reimbursement of the plaintiffs’ reasonable fees and costs, including attorney's fees. We believe that the case is without merit and intend to defend it vigorously. Due to the early stage of the case, neither the likelihood that a loss, if any, will be realized, nor an estimate of the possible loss or range of loss, if any, can be determined. The Company has tendered defense of each of the three foregoing claims under its Directors' and Officers’ policy. The retention under this policy is $20 million.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) as determined by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for financial reporting. The consolidated financial statements, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly our financial position, our results of operations, cash flows and stockholders’ equity (deficit) for the periods presented. The results are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be anticipated for any future annual or interim period. On July 1, 2021, we, through our wholly owned indirect subsidiary, merged with Apollo Fusion, Inc. ("Apollo"). The fair value of the consideration paid as of July 1, 2021, was $ 70.8 million, net of cash acquired (the "Apollo Merger"). The Apollo Merger was accounted for under FASB’s ASC Topic 805, Business Combination (“ASC 805”). Apollo designs, tests, manufactures and operates propulsion modules to enable satellites to orbit in space. The results of operations of Apollo are included in the consolidated financial statements commencing as of July 1, 2021, or the Apollo Acquisition Date. See Note 3 — Acquisitions for additional information. On June 30, 2021, the Business Combination pursuant to the BCA, by and among Holicity, Merger Sub, and pre-combination Astra, is accounted for as a reverse recapitalization as pre-combination Astra was determined to be the accounting acquirer under ASC 805. The determination is primarily based on the evaluation of the following facts and circumstances: • the equity holders of pre-combination Astra hold the majority of voting rights in the Company; • the board of directors of pre-combination Astra represent a majority of the members of the board of directors of the Company; • the senior management of pre-combination Astra became the senior management of the Company; and • the operations of pre-combination Astra comprise the ongoing operations of the Company. In connection with the Business Combination, outstanding common stock and preferred convertible stock of the pre-combination Astra was converted into common stock of the Company, par value of $ 0.0001 per share, representing a recapitalization, and the net assets of the Company were acquired and recorded at historical cost, with no goodwill or intangible assets recorded. Pre-combination Astra was deemed to be the predecessor and the consolidated assets and liabilities and results of operations prior to the Closing Date are those of pre-combination Astra. Reported shares and earnings per share available to common stockholders, prior to the Business Combination, have been retroactively restated as shares reflecting the exchange ratio established in the BCA. The number of shares of preferred stock was also retroactively restated based on the exchange ratio. See Note 3 — Acquisitions for additional information
Principles of Consolidation	Principles of Consolidation and Liquidity The consolidated financial statements include the accounts for the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company has historically funded its operations primarily by equity financings and convertible promissory notes prior to the Business Combination and subsequently funded its operations through cash proceeds obtained as part of the Business Combination and related private placement. As of December 31, 2021, the Company’s existing sources of liquidity included cash and cash equivalents of $ 325 million . The Company has a limited history of operations and has incurred negative cash flows from operating activities and loss from operations in the past as reflected in the accumulated deficit of $ 1,408.4 million as of December 31, 2021. The Company expects to continue to incur operating losses due to the investments it intends to make in its business, including the development of products. The Company has adequate cash balances that will be sufficient to fund operating and capital expenditure requirements through at least 12 months from the date of issuance of these financial statements.
Segment Reporting	Segment Reporting Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision-maker (“CODM”) in making decisions regarding resource allocation and assessing performance. All of the Company’s assets are maintained in the United States. The Company has determined that it operates in one operating segment and one reportable segment, as the CODM reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis for purposes of making operating decisions, allocating resources and evaluating financial performance.
Risks and Uncertainties	Risks and Uncertainties The Company is subject to those risks common in the aerospace and technology industry and also those risks common to early stage companies including, but not limited to, the possibility of not being able to successfully develop or market its products or services, competition, dependence on key personnel and key external alliances, the successful protection of its proprietary technologies, compliance with government regulations, and the possibility of not being able to obtain additional financing when needed. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) a global pandemic and recommended containment and mitigation measures worldwide. The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted everyday life and markets worldwide, leading to significant business and supply-chain disruption, as well as broad-based changes in supply and demand. Many of the Company’s customers worldwide were impacted by COVID-19 and temporarily closed their facilities which impacted the speed of research and development. Additionally, we implemented cost-cutting measures in response to the anticipated impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020, including employee layoffs and temporary furloughs. Further, the Company’s fund raising was negatively impacted in the first half of 2020 as a result of a number of factors surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic. Beginning in the first quarter of 2021, there has been a trend in many parts of the world of increasing availability and administration of vaccines against COVID-19, as well as an easing of restrictions on social, business, travel and government activities and functions. On the other hand, infection rates and regulations continue to fluctuate in various regions and there are ongoing global impacts resulting from the pandemic, including challenges and increases in costs for logistics and supply chains, such as increased intermittent supplier delays and a shortfall of semiconductor supply. Ultimately, we cannot predict the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic. We will continue to monitor macroeconomic conditions to remain flexible and to optimize and evolve our business as appropriate and deploy our production, workforce and other resources accordingly.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The Company bases these estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the valuation of goodwill and intangible assets, inventory valuation, stock-based compensation, common stock, derivatives and warrants, useful lives of intangible assets and fixed assets, deferred tax assets, income tax uncertainties, contingent consideration and other contingencies.
Cash and Cash Equivalents	Cash and Cash Equivalents We consider all highly liquid investment securities with original maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents consists of cash deposited with banks and a money market account. We determine the appropriate classification of our cash and cash equivalents at the time of purchase.
Trade Accounts Receivable	Trade Accounts Receivable Trade accounts receivable are recognized at the invoiced amount that represents an unconditional right to consideration under the contract with customers, less an allowance for any potential expected uncollectible amounts, and do not bear interest. The allowance for doubtful accounts is determined by estimating the expected credit losses based on historical experience, current economic conditions and certain forward-looking information, among other factors. Uncollectible accounts are written off when deemed uncollectible. No allowances for expected credit losses were recorded as of December 31, 2021 and 2020 and no accounts were written off during the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019.
Concentration of Credit Risk	Concentration of Credit Risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consists of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company maintains cash and cash equivalent balances in bank accounts with one bank. All cash accounts are located in the United States and insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). Our accounts receivable are derived from revenue earned from customers or invoice billed to customer that represent unconditional right to consideration located within the U.S. We mitigate collection risks from our customers by performing regular credit evaluations of our customers’ financial conditions. The Company believes there is no exposure to any significant credit risks related to its cash and cash equivalents or accounts receivable and has not experienced any losses in such accounts.
Inventories	Inventories Inventories consist of materials expected to be used for customer-specific contracts. Costs include direct material, direct labor, applicable manufacturing and engineering overhead, and other direct costs. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value determined by the first-in, first-out method. The Company assesses inventories quarterly for events or changes in circumstances indicating that the utility of our inventories have diminished through damage, deterioration, obsolescence, changes in price or other causes and records write-downs of inventories to research and development expense in the period for which they occur. A net realizable value write down is recorded, when actual costs exceed the estimated selling price less estimated selling costs.
Property, Plant And Equipment	Property, Plant and Equipment Property, plant and equipment is measured at cost less any impairment losses and represents those assets with estimated useful lives exceeding one year. Repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Costs for research and development equipment include amounts related to design, construction, launch and commissioning. Costs for production equipment include amounts related to construction and testing. Interest expense is capitalized on certain qualifying assets that take a substantial period of time to prepare for their intended use. Capitalized interest is not material for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. When the costs of certain components of an item of property, plant and equipment are significant in relation to the total cost of the item and the components have different useful lives, they are accounted for and depreciated separately. Depreciation expense is recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the related asset to its residual value. The estimated useful lives are as follows: Asset Class Estimated useful life Leasehold improvements Lesser of lease term or useful life Research and development equipment 5 years Production equipment 10 years Furniture and fixtures 5 years Computer and software 3 years
Business Combinations	Business Combinations We account for business combinations under the acquisition method of accounting, which requires us to recognize separately from goodwill the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed at their acquisition date fair values. While we use our best estimates and assumptions to accurately value assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date as well as contingent consideration, where applicable, our estimates are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement. As a result, during the measurement period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date, we record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with the corresponding offset to goodwill. Upon the conclusion of the measurement period or final determination of the values of assets acquired or liabilities assumed, whichever comes first, any subsequent adjustments are recognized in our consolidated statements of operations. Accounting for business combinations requires our management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially at the acquisition date including our estimates for intangible assets, contractual obligations assumed, pre-acquisition contingencies, and contingent consideration, where applicable. Although we believe the assumptions and estimates we have made are reasonable and appropriate, they are based, in part, on historical experience and information obtained from the management of the acquired company and are inherently uncertain. Critical estimates in valuing certain acquired intangible assets under the income approach include growth in future expected cash flows from product sales, revenue growth rate, technology royalty rate, expected life of the technology acquired, customer retention rate and discount rates. Unanticipated events and circumstances may occur that may affect the accuracy or validity of such assumptions, estimates or actual results.
Goodwill	Goodwill Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price and related costs over the value assigned to the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets of businesses acquired. Goodwill is not amortized but is reviewed annually on October 1 (or more frequently if impairment indicators arise) for impairment. To review for impairment, we first assess qualitative factors to determine whether events or circumstances lead to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of our reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. Our qualitative assessment of the recoverability of goodwill, whether performed annually or based on specific events or circumstances, considers various macroeconomic, industry-specific and company-specific factors. Those factors include: (i) severe adverse industry or economic trends; (ii) significant company-specific actions; (iii) current, historical or projected deterioration of our financial performance; or (iv) a sustained decrease in our market capitalization below our net book value. After assessing the totality of events and circumstances, if we determine that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of our reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, no further assessment is performed. If we determine that it is more likely than not that the fair value of our reporting units is less than its carrying amount, we calculate the fair value of that reporting unit and compare the fair value to the reporting unit’s net book value. If the fair value of the reporting unit is greater than its net book value, there is no impairment. Otherwise, we record a goodwill impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value up to the amount of the goodwill. Determining the fair value of a reporting unit involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions.
Long-lived Assets	Long-lived Assets Purchased finite-lived intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization is recognized over the useful life on a straight-line method. Purchased indefinite-lived intangible asset are capitalized at fair value and assessed for impairment thereafter. Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment annually on October 1 or whenever factors or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of long-lived assets, including purchased intangible assets and property, plant and equipment, may not be recoverable. Factors we consider important which could trigger an impairment review include (i) significant under-performance relative to historical or projected future operating results, (ii) significant changes in the manner of our use of the acquired assets or the strategy for our overall business, and (iii) significant negative industry or economic trends. An impairment loss must be measured if the sum of the expected future cash flows (undiscounted and before interest) from the use and eventual disposition of the asset (or asset group) is less than the net book value of the asset (or asset group). The amount of the impairment loss will generally be measured as the difference between the net book value of the asset (or asset group) and the estimated fair value.
Leases	Leases On January 1, 2021, the Company adopted ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) ("ASC 842"). Under the adoption of the new lease accounting standard, the Company elected practical expedients that allow entities to not reassess 1) initial direct costs, 2) lease classification for existing or expired leases and 3) lease definition for existing or expired contracts as of the effective date of January 1, 2021. Upon adoption of ASC 842, the Company determines whether a contract is or contains a lease at contract inception by evaluating whether substitution rights exist and whether the Company obtains substantially all of the benefits and directs the use of the identified asset. When the Company determined a lease exists, the Company records a right-of-use asset (“ROU asset”) and corresponding lease liability in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term. Lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets are recognized at the commencement date of the lease at the value of the lease liability, adjusted for any prepayments, lease incentives received, and initial direct costs incurred. Lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement date of the lease based on the present value of remaining lease payments over the lease term. As the discount rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable in most leases, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date of the lease in determining the present value of lease payments. Lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. The Company does not record lease contracts with a lease term of 12 months or less on its Consolidated Balance Sheets. Fixed lease costs associated with these short-term contracts are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company does not record lease contracts acquired in a business combination with a remaining lease term of 12 months or less on its Consolidated Balance Sheets. Fixed lease costs associated with these short-term contracts are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company recognizes lease expense for operating leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For finance leases, the Company recognizes amortization expense on the ROU asset and interest expense on the lease liability over the lease term. The Company has lease agreements with non-lease components that relate to the lease components. The Company accounts for each lease component and any non-lease components associated with that lease component as a single lease component for all underlying asset classes. Accordingly, all costs associated with a contract that is or contains a lease are accounted for as lease costs. Some leasing arrangements require variable payments that are dependent on usage, output, or may vary for other reasons, such as insurance and tax payments. These variable lease costs are recognized as incurred over the lease term. The Company does not include significant restrictions or covenants in lease agreements, and residual value guarantees are generally not included within the Company’s leases. See Note 10 — Leases.
Fair Value Measurements	Fair Value Measurements The carrying amounts of cash, trade accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, other current assets, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and certain other current liabilities approximate fair value because of their short-term maturities. The carrying amounts of the 2018 Term Loans and 2018 Equipment Advances (as defined in Note 7 — Long-Term Debt) approximate fair value as the interest rate varies with the Prime Rate. According to ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy establishes three tiers, which prioritize the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows: Level 1 — Observable inputs, such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2 — Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and Level 3 — Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions. Entities are permitted to choose to measure certain financial instruments and other items at fair value. The Company has not elected the fair value measurement option for any of the assets or liabilities that meet the criteria for this election.
Derivative Instruments	Derivative Instruments The Company recognizes all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at their respective fair values. The Company evaluates its debt and equity issuances to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives requiring separate recognition in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The result of this accounting treatment is that the fair value of the embedded derivative is revalued as of each reporting date and recorded as a liability, and the change in fair value during the reporting period is recorded in other income, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as assets/liabilities or as equity, is reassessed at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument assets and liabilities are classified in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument is expected within twelve months of the Consolidated Balance Sheets dates. When a derivative instrument is sold, terminated, exercised or expires, the gain or loss is recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company did not have a derivative liability related to the share settlement obligation of the Company’s convertible notes as of December 31, 2021 and 2020. See Note 7 — Long-Term Debt.
Accrued Expenses and Other Current Liabilities	Accrued Expenses and Other Current Liabilities Accrued expenses and other current liabilities are recognized when events or circumstances have occurred, and amounts are probable and estimable. The Company’s accrued expenses and other current liabilities balances relate to accruals that are recurring in nature to the company's operations and primarily include accrual of routine operational related expenses, accrued payroll, other employee related liabilities, accrued interest related to debt, contract liabilities and other accrued liabilities. The Company also recognizes legal accruals in accrued expenses and other current liabilities for material litigation when payments are probable and estimable in accordance with ASC 450, Contingencies.
Warrant Liabilities	Warrant Liabilities The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s common stock, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding. For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and at each reporting period thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the warrants are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the statements of operations. The Company redeemed all outstanding private and public warrants as of December 27, 2021.
Convertible Preferred Stock	Convertible Preferred Stock Series A, B and C convertible preferred stock ("Convertible Preferred Stock") are classified in temporary equity as they contain terms that could require the Company to redeem them for cash at the option of the holder or the occurrence of other events not solely within the Company’s control. The shares of Series A, B and C Convertible Preferred Stock were converted into Class A common stock upon consummation of the Business Combination.
Revenue Recognition	Revenue Recognition In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ( Topic 606 ) (“ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09, combined with all subsequent amendments, which is collectively Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606 (“ASC 606”), Revenue from Contracts with Customers, provides guidance outlining a single five-step comprehensive revenue model in accounting for revenue from contracts with customers which supersedes all existing revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. ASC 606 also requires additional disclosures about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to fulfill a contract. The Company adopted the new accounting guidance and related amendments (collectively, the “new revenue accounting standard”) on January 1, 2020 using the modified retrospective method. As the Company did not have any revenue from contracts with any customers prior to the Company’s adoption date, there was no accounting impact upon adoption. Under ASC 606, the Company will recognize revenue to reflect the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Through its current and anticipated offerings, the Company expects to generate revenue by providing the following services: Launch Services — To provide rapid, global, and affordable launch services to satellite operators and governments in partnership with third-party spaceport providers globally. Our launch services includes services tied directly to our launch along with complementary services that are not part of our fixed pricing for which we charge a separate fee. We currently operate our launches from Pacific Spaceport Complex in Kodiak, Alaska and Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Cape Canaveral, Florida. We plan to add additional launch sites in diverse locations based on our customers' inclination requirements and as we increase the frequency of launches. Space Products — To design and provide space products based on the customers' needs for a successful satellite launch and other products that we may sell in the future. Currently we offer two in-space electric propulsion systems. Space Services — To invest in building our portfolio of space services, which includes communication service and constellation services, which will be based on our network of spacecraft that customers can access for use in their business. Specifically, our space services encompass all aspects of hosted satellite and constellation services, including hosting customer payloads onto our spacecraft, and delivering services, such as communication and other services, to customers from our space platform. As of December 31, 2021, the Company has only entered into contracts for launch services and space products. As of December 31, 2021, the Company is in early stages of developing our space services offerings which includes communication service and constellation services. The Company’s contracts may provide customers with termination for convenience clauses, which may or may not include termination penalties. In some contracts, the size of the contractual termination penalty increases closer to the scheduled launch date. At each balance sheet date, the Company evaluates each contract’s termination provisions and the impact on the accounting contract term, i.e., the period in which the Company has enforceable rights and obligations. This includes evaluating whether there are termination penalties and if so, whether they are considered substantive. The Company applies judgment in determining whether the termination penalties are substantive. No revenue has been recognized for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. Revenue for launch services and space products is expected to be recognized at a point in time when the Company has delivered the promised services or products to customers. Although the Company’s contracts are anticipated to last anywhere from six to 24 months, depending on the number of launch services or units of products ordered, the delivery of services leading up to the launch within the contracts is short-term in nature, generally between 30 to 60 days. The timing of revenue recognition may differ from contract billing or payment schedules, resulting in revenues that have been earned but not billed (“unbilled revenue”) or amounts that have been collected, but not earned (“contract liabilities”). Typical Contractual Arrangements The Company expects to provide its services based upon a combination of a Statement of Work ("SOW") and an executed contract detailing the general terms and conditions. Services are expected to be provided based on a fixed price per launch service or units of space products as identified in the contract. Performance Obligations and Transaction Price At contract inception, an assessment of the goods and services promised in the contracts with customers is performed and a performance obligation is identified for each distinct promise to transfer to the customer a good or service (or bundle of goods or services). To identify the performance obligations, the Company considers all the goods or services promised in the contract regardless of whether they are explicitly stated or are implied by customary business practices. A contract for launch services generally requires the Company to provide an integrated service for each launch, which includes launch vehicle analysis and design, development and production, payload integration, launch preparation and launch support execution. The intention of the contract is to provide a full-service launch to the customer rather than providing separate deliverables of each of the services outlined above, and these services are interdependent and interrelated. The Company believes that each dedicated launch will represent one single performance obligation. A contract for space products generally requires the Company to provide integrated propulsion systems, which includes analysis and design, development and production. The intention of the contract is to provide a fully functional propulsion system to the customer and all the activities are interdependent and interrelated. The Company believes that the delivery of the propulsion system will represent one single performance obligation. The transaction price is defined as the amount of consideration in a contract to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer, which is a fixed price stated in the contract. When a contract involves multiple launches or units, the Company will account for each launch or unit as a separate performance obligation, because the customer can benefit from each launch or unit on its own or with other readily available resources and the launch or unit is separately identifiable. The transaction price will be allocated to each performance obligation on an estimated relative standalone selling price basis. The Company’s process to estimate standalone selling prices will involve management’s judgment and will consider multiple factors such as prices charged for similar goods and services and the Company’s ongoing pricing strategy and policies. Recognition of Revenue The work performed by the Company in fulfilling the performance obligation is not expected to create an asset to the customer since the launch vehicle that is built to deliver the customer’s payload into orbit will not be owned by the customer or the propulsion systems that are built to thrust the customers' satellite into orbit will not be owned by the customer until its delivered to the customer. The Company expects to recognize revenue upon completion of the performance obligations under its launch services and space products agreements. Contracts related to research and development activities are recognized as other income. See Other Income, net . Other Policies, Judgments and Practical Expedients Contract balances. Contract assets and liabilities represent the differences in the timing of revenue recognition from the receipt of cash from the Company’s customers and billings. Contract assets reflect revenue recognized and performance obligations satisfied in advance of customer billing. Contract liabilities relate to payments received in advance of the satisfaction of performance under the contract. Receivables represent rights to consideration that are unconditional. Such rights are considered unconditional if only the passage of time is required before payment of that consideration is due. The Company had no contract assets as of December 31, 2021 and 2020. The Company had contract liabilities of $ 10.4 million as of December 31, 2021 and none as of December 31, 2020. Payment terms are expected to vary by customer and type of revenue contract. Remaining performance obligations . Revenue allocated to remaining performance obligations represents the transaction price allocated to the performance obligations that are unsatisfied, or partially unsatisfied. It includes unearned revenue and amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods and does not include contracts where the customer is not committed. Customers are not considered committed when they are able to terminate their contractual obligations to us without payment of a substantive penalty under the contract. Many of the Company’s contracts allow the customer to terminate the contract prior to launch or delivery without a substantive penalty, and therefore the enforceable contract is for a period less than the stated contractual term. Further, the Company has elected not to disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original expected length of one year or less. The Company had unsatisfied performance obligations of $ 19.6 million as of December 31, 2021, which are expected to be recognized in 2022 and the first half of 2023 . The Company had no unsatisfied performance obligations as of December 31, 2020. Costs to obtain a contract. The Company recognizes an asset for the incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer. These costs will be ascribed to or allocated to the underlying performance obligations in the contract and amortized consistent with the recognition timing of the revenue for the underlying performance obligations. During the year ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company did no t recognize any expenses related to contract costs. The Company had no assets related to costs to obtain contracts as of December 31, 2021 and 2020. For contract costs related to performance obligations with an amortization period of one year or less, the Company applies the practical expedient to expense these sales commissions when incurred. These costs are recognized as incurred within sales and marketing expenses on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations. Significant financing component. In certain arrangements, the Company may receive payment from a customer either before or after the performance obligation has been satisfied. Depending on the expected timing difference between the payment and satisfaction of performance obligations, the Company will assess whether a significant financing component exists. For the year ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company has not recognized any revenues with respect to the Company’s launch services business of delivering payloads into low-earth orbit or space products. Contracts with governmental entities involving research and development milestone activities do not represent contracts with customers under ASC 606 and as such, amounts received are recorded in other income, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company recorded $ 1.5 million, $ 2.7 million and $ 0.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Other Income, net	Other Income, net Other income, net, primarily consists of changes in fair value of mark to market derivative liabilities of convertible notes, public and private placement of warrants and contingent consideration, funding received from governmental entities, and one-time charges incurred during the period. The remaining balance is non-recurring charges that are outside of the Company’s operations. The Company recognizes all derivative instruments, warrant liabilities and contingent consideration in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at their respective fair value at each reporting date, with measurement adjustments recorded in other income, net within the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. See Note 5 — Supplemental Financial Information.
Loss on Extinguishment of Convertible Notes	Loss on Extinguishment of Convertible Notes The Company recognized a total loss on extinguishment of convertible notes of $ 133.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. No loss was recognized for the extinguishment of convertible notes for the year ended December 30, 2020 and 2019. On January 28, 2021, the Company settled all convertible notes outstanding as of December 31, 2020 through its Series C financing. Given that certain convertible notes were settled based on negotiated terms between the Company and the note holders, the Company concluded that such settlement should be treated as a privately negotiated debt settlement transaction where debt extinguishment accounting should be applied. Therefore, the Company recognized the loss on extinguishment of convertible notes, which represents the difference between the net carrying amount of the convertible notes at the time of extinguishment and the fair value of Series C convertible preferred stock issued to settle these convertible notes. See Note 7 — Long-Term Debt.
Research and Development	Research and Development The Company incurs various direct costs in relation to the research and development of launch vehicles along with costs to build the facility to test such vehicles and spacecraft. Research and development costs consist primarily of production supplies, testing materials, personnel costs (including salaries and benefits), depreciation expense, overhead allocation (consisting of various support and facility costs), stock-based compensation and consulting fees. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. For the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, the Company expensed research and development costs of $ 80.4 million, $ 27.5 million and $ 40.1 million , respectively.
Stock-Based Compensation	Stock-Based Compensation The Company recognizes compensation expense for time-based restricted stock units (“RSUs”) over the requisite service period based on the fair value of RSUs on the date of grant. The fair value of RSUs is the closing market price of Astra common stock on the date of grant. We recognize compensation expense for time-based stock options and employee stock purchase plan, based on the estimated grant-date fair value determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model over the requisite service period. Certain stock options include service, market and performance conditions ("performance-based stock options" or "PSO"). The fair value of performance-based stock options is estimated on the date of grant using the Monte Carlo simulation model. Certain RSUs also include service and performance conditions ('performance-based units" or "PSU"). The fair value of performance-based units is the closing market price of Astra common stock on the date of grant. Awards that include performance conditions are assessed at the end of each reporting period whether those performance conditions are met or probable of being met and involves significant judgement. For performance-based stock options, stock-based compensation expense associated with each tranche is recognized over the longer of (i) the expected achievement period for the operational milestone for such tranche and (ii) the expected achievement period for the related share price milestone determined on the grant date, beginning at the point in time when the relevant operational milestone is considered probable of being achieved. If such operational milestone becomes probable any time after the grant date, we will recognize a cumulative catch-up expense from the grant date to that point in time. If the related share price milestone is achieved earlier than its expected achievement period and the achievement of the related operational milestone, then the stock-based compensation expense will be recognized over the expected achievement period for the operational milestone, which may accelerate the rate at which such expense is recognized. For performance-based units, stock-based compensation expense associated with each tranche is recognized over the longer of the expected performance achievement period of individual performance milestones and the implicit service period when the achievement of each individual performance milestone becomes probable. The Company does not apply an expected forfeiture rate and accounts for forfeitures as they occur. See Note 15 — Stock-based Compensation.
Income Taxes	Income Taxes The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between consolidated financial statement carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities and net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. The Company determines whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination. If it is not more likely than not that a position will be sustained, no amount of benefit attributable to the position is recognized. The tax benefit to be recognized of any tax position that meets the more likely than not recognition threshold is calculated as the largest amount that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon resolution of the contingency. It is the Company’s policy to include interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position. See Note 9 — Income Taxes.
Earnings (Loss) per Share	Earnings (Loss) per Share Net loss per share is calculated using the two-class method required for participating securities and multiple classes of common stock. The Company considers convertible preferred stock to be participating securities as the holders have the right to participate in dividends with the common stockholders on a pro-rata, as converted basis. Prior to any dividends or earnings distribution to common stock, the holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock have a right to preferential dividends. Thus, losses are allocated to common stock and convertible preferred stock on a pro-rata, as converted basis following distribution of the preferential dividends to convertible preferred stockholders. Since application of the if-converted method results in anti-dilution, the two-class method is not applied to convertible preferred stock in the diluted earnings (loss) per share calculation. The dilutive effect of warrants, RSUs and stock options is computed using the treasury stock method. Diluted earnings (loss) per share excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. See Note 16 — Loss per Share.
Commitments and Contingencies	Commitments and Contingencies The Company accrues for claims and litigation when they are both probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Where timing and amounts cannot be reasonably determined, a range is estimated, and the lower end of the range is recorded. Legal costs incurred in connection with loss contingencies are expensed as incurred. See Note 12 — Commitments and Contingencies.

The company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing-model to calculate the grant date fair value of time based options and Monte Carlo simulation model to calculate the grant date fair value of PSOs. The following table summarizes the assumptions used in estimating the fair value of options granted in the year ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019: Time Based Options Performance Based Stock Options 2021 2020 2019 2021 Expected terms (years) (1) 6.00 5.78 5.84 2.50 - 4.40 Expected volatility (2) 68.8 % 47.4 % 34.0 % 68.9 % Risk-free interest rate (3) 0.98 % 0.29 % - 1.19 % 1.58 % - 2.54 % 1.31 % Expected dividend rate (4) - - - - Grant-date fair value $ 5.52 $ 1.12 $ 0.11 $ 4.66 ____________ (1) The expected term is the length of time the grant is expected to be outstanding before it is exercised or terminated. This number is calculated as the midpoint between the vesting term and the original contractual term (contractual period to exercise). If the option contains graded vesting, then the vesting term would be based on the vesting pattern. (2) Expected volatility, or the standard deviation of annualized returns, was calculated based on comparable companies’ reported volatilities. (3) Risk-free interest was obtained from US treasury notes for the expected terms noted as of the valuation date . (4) The Company has assumed a dividend yield of zero as it has no plans to declare dividends in the foreseeable future . Prior to the Business Combination, the fair value of the common stock underlying our stock-based awards was determined with input from management and corroboration from contemporaneous third-party valuations. Given the absence of a public trading market, we considered numerous objective and subjective facts to determine the fair value of the Company’s Common Stock at each date at which awards were approved. These factors included, but were not limited to (i) contemporaneous third-party valuations of Common Stock; (ii) the rights and preferences of Founders Convertible Preferred and Convertible Preferred relative to Common Stock; (iii) the lack of marketability of Common Stock; (iv) developments in the business; and (v) the likelihood of achieving a liquidity event, such as an IPO or sale of the Company, given prevailing market conditions.
