Discover the cutting-edge launch systems, orbital infrastructure, and commercial space innovations expanding humanity's footprint and building the new space economy.
Astronaut digital twins turn a year of one astronaut's molecular data into a training set for precision medicine on Earth. NASA open data and the first commercial spaceflight biobanks make it usable.
The cislunar economy is worth $14.99B in 2026 and one customer funds nearly all of it. NASA's CLPS anchors 17 deliveries on a $2.6B ceiling; CLPS 2.0 adds a $6B, 77-mission pipeline. A guide to where the revenue comes from, and the propellant bet that adds a second customer.
Starfish Space's $110M Series B and three commercial contracts make on-orbit servicing a recurring business, not a demonstration. The bet is a single-camera autonomy stack.
Venus Aerospace raised a $91M Series B to scale rotating detonation rocket engines after the first US flight test of a high-thrust RDRE. A Lockheed Martin agreement pushes the platform toward long-range precision systems.
SWISSto12's $70M Series C funds washing-machine-sized, 3D-printed geostationary satellites. Seven HummingSat orders form a $500M backlog, revenue hit $140M in 2025, and ESA's ARTES program funds in-orbit validation ahead of first delivery to SES in 2027.
Lunar Outpost raised $30M and won a $220M NASA contract for the Pegasus rover — an autonomous robotic workforce that will build Moon base infrastructure before astronauts arrive. NASA plans 25 robotic missions in Phase 1 alone.
$2.5 billion. That's what satellite network failures cost the industry every year. And the number is about to get much worse. There are roughly 10,000 active satellites in orbit today. By 2030, that number is expected to exceed 70,000, a 7x increase in less than
The Bothell-based space mobility startup secured $50M from Geodesic Capital, Mach33 and Booz Allen to scale production of its solar thermal propulsion spacecraft.
