Stardust Solutions is a US-Israeli solar geoengineering startup founded in 2023 by CEO Yanai Yedvab (a former deputy chief scientist at the Israeli Atomic Energy Commission), lead scientist Eli Waxman (Weizmann Institute of Science), and CPO Amyad Spector(a former Negev Nuclear Research Center physicist). The firm develops proprietary aerosol technology to reflect sunlight and combat climate change. Key Details About Stardust Solutions:Mission: To research and develop safe, controllable solar radiation modification (SRM) technology, aiming for government contracts and international deployment.Funding & Status: As of late 2025, the company secured $60 million to develop reflective particles and plans to conduct outdoor experiments as early as 2026.Leadership: CEO Yanai Yedvab focuses on creating a "regulated" and "transparent" model, despite operating in a highly secretive, high-risk sector.Approach: Unlike rivals using sulfur dioxide, Stardust is developing proprietary, novel particles that they claim are safer and more effective.Controversy: The company faces skepticism from experts worried that a for-profit entity is controlling a technology with profound global health and climate risks. Note: The results also mention a different company, Stardust Inc., which is a Canadian aerospace technology company founded by Jason Michaud.SPECIAL THANKS TO @ViolentVixen29 ATTN : @TomRenz MORE RESEARCH IS NEEDED INTO THIS GEO-ENGINEERING START UP 👀
