Simple End-Of-Life for Your Constellation
Reliably de-orbit your spacecraft with Gama's Astrobrake range of dragsails, as a primary or redundant system.
The fully independent and self contained deorbit module has no reliance on other spacecraft subsystems, simplifying integration and making end-of-life reliability easier to demonstrate and quantify for regulatory compliance. Peace of mind, with engineering time and money savings.
Our team can also help you with simulations, reliability analysis and regulatory reports.
Catch the Light, Reach the Stars
Redefining deep space access through low-cost, reliable and scalable solar sails. Designed to meet your mission requirements.
Status Comment
Solar sail demonstration results not announced as of early 2024. Drag sails added as a shorter-term business model.
