Autonomous machines for in-space operations.
Orbital drones. Diagnosis and intelligence at the point of need, soon repair: the missing layer of the sustainment ecosystem. The drone is real. The flights are booked.
Roughly $400M is changing hands right now on a cause nobody can verify: SpainSat NG II, struck by an unverified particle, declared non-recoverable in January 2026. Today's only options are a spacewalk, a robotic-arm pass, or a dedicated $15M to $55M mission. We settle nine-figure arguments. Space Intel Report · Hisdesat · NASA and SSC award records
Autonomous sustainment platforms. An AI intelligence layer plus robotic repair and resupply, at the point of need, conquering the tyranny of distance. First flight system: HORUS, an autonomous space drone (orbital micro free-flyer) for inspection, diagnosis, and servicing of high-value assets. Onboard AI diagnosis, patent pending. Damage found and diagnosed in hours, without a spacewalk or a dedicated mission. Behind it: autonomous space factories, the destination, in development. Full specifications under NDA. The arc: inspection, then sustainment, then in-space production.
Built on a flight-proven free-flyer lineage. Patent pending on onboard inspect-diagnose. Presence: we live at the asset; everyone else visits. And the data ratchet: everyone can process data, nobody else can be there to collect it.
2023 was the worst year on record for space insurers: roughly $557M of premium against $1B+ in claims; carriers exited and rates rose 50 to 150 percent. Continuous condition data turns assets back into insurable, financeable uptime, for operators, financiers, and underwriters. Gallagher · Insurance Insider
