5 Orbital Service Companies to Watch

in #space6 years ago

As the space industry continues to grow, there is an ever-increasing need for services that operate while in-orbit.

What are orbital services? Activities which a company can provide to a customer while in-space - i.e. Satellite life-extension, deorbiting space debris, satellite deployment technology, and satellite orbital relocation.

Most of those things have yet to be proven on a large scale, and nation-states generally aren't the ones trying to tackle these problems. Astropreneurs are.

Here are a few NewSpace Ventures is keeping an eye on:
Effective Space - Extending the life of satellites in orbit by providing on-orbit services
D-Orbit - Specializing in the deployment and decommissioning of CubeSats.
ViviSat - Providing in-orbit satellite life extension and protection services.
bSpace - Launch your satellite or entire constellation from the ISS.
Satellite Squared - On-Orbit contactless servicing for power boosting.
