The first large scale Space Construction Company designed to build any structure in space quickly and with precision.
Our long term goal is to create a powerful space construction industry able to complete any sized projects ranging from LEO to lunar orbit. Orbital Assembly will become a buyer of space construction equipment from engineering firms all over the world producing machines and tools designed for Space: Fabrication, Assembly and Construction (FAC).
- Over the last three years, Orbital Assembly completed schematic design of the Voyager-class™ station and Pioneer-class™ space platforms, and the OASIS™ habitation module. The company has signed agreements with dozens of partners, vendors, and future customers.
- The company is also pursuing a number of Small Business Administration projects (SBIR) with multiple agencies in the Department of Defense.
- Orbital Assembly offers consulting services to assist these customers in preparing for use of our orbital assets and fly payload on the first Pioneer-class station, with planned initial operation within 30 months contingent on funding.
- The Pioneer-class Station will be our first free-flying space craft and accommodate up to 54 people. This hybrid-gravity space station, used for commercial operations, is designed for variable artificial gravity operation, providing the opportunity for long term habitation.
