Discover the cutting-edge launch systems, orbital infrastructure, and commercial space innovations expanding humanity's footprint and building the new space economy.
Space domain awareness is becoming the traffic control layer of the commercial orbit economy. Inside the 2026 funding wave, the shift to AI threat detection, and who owns the catalog.
Pixxel closed a $100 million Series C, the largest Indian space-tech raise, co-led by Temasek and Seraphim. The bet: Earth observation stops being a data product and becomes planetary infrastructure.
Outlier Space, Varda and Space Forge are building the return-trip layer of the space economy. The ISS subsidy is ending, and pharmaceutical companies are the first customers willing to pay for it.
K2 Space closed a $500M Series D at a $6.8B valuation, powered by the most powerful electric thruster ever flown. The next test is whether it can build 100 large satellites a year.
The first commercial spacecraft to rendezvous with an asteroid launches in Q4 2026. Built for under $5 million, with a failed mission behind it, it carries $2.1 billion of the sector’s hopes.
A $10.75M EON seed, a $155.3M Rocket Lab-Mynaric deal and a $90M Observable Space round are turning laser links into the transport layer for orbital AI.
Solidion's graphene-based Gen-ECB battery operates from -80°C to +60°C. The $35M raise behind it signals where the space power market is heading.
SpaceSail closed a ~$1B Series B at a ¥50 billion valuation while reporting $28,000 of 2025 revenue. The Qianfan LEO constellation is China’s state-backed answer to Starlink — barred from its home market, banking on Brazil and roughly 30 other countries.
