Autonomous On-Orbit Servicing

Satellite Upkeep for Protection, Extension, and Repair

The autonomous space mechanic.

We build robotic spacecraft that autonomously service, repair, and extend the life of satellites already in orbit — making space infrastructure sustainable for the long haul.

Satellites die young.
Billions of dollars with them.

Space is littered with stranded assets — satellites that failed early or ran out of propellant. Today there is no standard way to service them. That's a systemic failure we're here to fix.

~9%
Premature Satellite Failures
Roughly 1 in 11 satellites fails before its intended end-of-life, often due to mechanical or propellant issues that are technically fixable — just not from the ground.
$270B+
Lost Revenue & Assets
Billions in stranded capital. Satellites are among the most expensive hardware humanity builds — and right now we just let them die with no recourse.
Zero
Industry-Wide Servicing Standard
No universally adopted docking interface, servicing protocol, or interoperability standard exists. Every operator is on their own — making rescue nearly impossible.

An autonomous servicer
built for orbit.

S.U.P.E.R. is a fully autonomous robotic spacecraft that can rendezvous with, inspect, repair, and refuel satellites already in orbit — no human pilot required.

  • 🦾
    Dual Robotic Arms A precision gripper for delicate manipulation and a Swiss-knife multi-tool arm for hardware servicing tasks.
  • 🧠
    AI-Assisted Navigation Computer vision and LiDAR-based pose estimation enable autonomous rendezvous with uncooperative targets.
  • 🔌
    Standardized Docking Interface Proposing an open docking standard so any satellite can become serviceable — and the whole industry benefits.
  • Krypton Hall Thrusters High-efficiency electric propulsion for precise orbital maneuvering with exceptional delta-V budget.

Five stages.
One mission.

From initial detection to safe departure, S.U.P.E.R. executes a fully autonomous end-to-end servicing mission.

📡
1. Monitoring
Ground systems and onboard telemetry identify satellites in distress or approaching end-of-propellant.
🔍
2. Inspection
S.U.P.E.R. performs a close-proximity survey using LiDAR and camera systems to assess damage and docking feasibility.
🛸
3. Autonomous Rendezvous
AI-guided navigation closes the gap and secures a soft dock with the client satellite — fully hands-free.
🔧
4. Repair
Robotic arms perform component swaps, refueling, power transfer, or structural repairs as needed.
🚀
5. Departure
S.U.P.E.R. safely undocks and repositions — ready for the next mission or to enter a parking orbit.

Engineered for
the harshest environment.

Every subsystem aboard S.U.P.E.R. is selected for reliability, performance, and the unforgiving demands of on-orbit operations.

Beyond a single
spacecraft.

We're not just designing a module — we're proposing an INDUSTRY STANDARD.

The space economy is scaling rapidly. Thousands of new satellites are launching every year. S.U.P.E.R. is laying the groundwork for a future where orbital infrastructure is maintained, extended, and never wasted.

🛡️

Protect
