Atomos

Atomos Space is building the future of orbital logistics, providing “last mile” transportation services for satellite operators. Our orbital transfer vehicles (OTVs) change the rocket equation – enabling impossible missions, providing unprecedented maneuverability, maintaining a sustainable orbital environment, and reducing the cost for satellite operators to get to their place in space.

Kicked off a new AFWERX Phase I Contract today, exploring how our Orbital Transfer Vehicles provide critical Space Domain Awareness capabilities.

Atomos 2021 (and some of ) 2022 in Review. Built the team, thrusters, rendezvous, and signed $363M in customer traction.

Launching first mission early 2024. Currently working three USSF contracts under Orbital Prime on rendezvous tech.

Now working to change this decades-long lag with a plan to conduct a basic critical test of a low-power (100-Watts thermal) fission reactor in orbit. Atomos Space believes regulatory hurdles are the main obstacle rather than technology.

Solar energy startup Solestial announced plans Aug. 2 to supply solar arrays for space tugs developed by Denver startup Atomos Space.

SERVICES

  • LEO transportation and deployment
  • Advanced transportation and deployment
  • Relocation
  • Delivery and resupply

MISSION-1 - THE SINGING ASTRONOMER

Will be the first flight of the Atomos-developed Quark Orbital Transfer Vehicle. Launching with a target spacecraft, Quark will demonstrate rendezvous docking, refueling, and in-space transit with a payload. Launching March 2024.

Will launch its first demonstration mission on SpaceX’s Transporter-10 in the first quarter of 2024, as the company looks to gain an early foothold in the emerging market for orbital transfer services.

GEO-1

GEO-2

With the current round of funding, the company says it will double the size of the team and launch its first two OTVs in early 2024.
