Secure and sustainable development of space for the benefit of future generations
概要
Founded in 2013, Astroscale is the global leader in on-orbit servicing, dedicated to the secure and sustainable development of space for the benefit of future generations. The company provides trusted and value-added solutions for government and commercial clients from their geography of choice, to drive the long-term, circular space economy. Astroscale is also collaborating with government and commercial stakeholders to develop norms, regulations, and incentives that promote the sustainable growth of space. Since its first successful launch in March 2021, Astroscale has proven rendezvous and proximity operations technologies in orbit during the ELSA-d and ADRAS-J missions, establishing the company as a leader in on-orbit servicing. Astroscale spacecraft have been selected for pioneering missions with JAXA, the U.S. Space Force, the European Space Agency, the UK Space Agency, and Eutelsat OneWeb. As more satellite operators adopt on-orbit servicing to routinely inspect, service and remove, the potential of a circular space economy — and a future of no waste in space — is being unlocked. Headquartered in Japan, Astroscale has a global presence with subsidiaries in the United Kingdom, the United States, France, and Israel.

Precision, autonomy, and control define mission success – and those capabilities are integral to rendezvous and proximity operations (RPO). RPO allows a spacecraft to locate, approach, and interact with another object in orbit safely and precisely, which is critical for every successful on-orbit servicing mission. As a highly technical and demanding capability, RPO relies on advanced guidance, navigation, and control (GNC), onboard autonomy, and fault-tolerant systems that maintain precision and safety in dynamic orbital environments. Our solutions are enabled by our best-in-class RPO technology and strengthened by Astroscale’s global experience, expertise, and cooperation to tackle the complex challenges of orbital servicing head-on. Here are just a few examples of how Astroscale’s servicers have accelerated RPO: 🛰️ The Astroscale U.S. Refueler – Validated the integration of flight software, guidance and navigation algorithms, and sensor systems enabling precise, autonomous maneuvers around another object in orbit during RPO testing under a Space Act Agreement with premier test site NASA Goddard Space Flight Center. 🛰️ ADRAS-J – Completed the world’s first commercial RPO and inspection mission to safely approach and characterize an existing piece of large debris, with multiple fly arounds and close inspection up to 15 meters of a defunct rocket body. 🛰️ ELSA-d - Led the world’s first commercial mission to prove the core technologies necessary for on-orbit satellite servicing in LEO and establish best practices for RPO. RPO is driving the evolution of on-orbit servicing architecture and enabling the future of refueling, inspection, and orbital logistics. We’re excited to lead the next generation of in-space capabilities – turning ambitious concepts into real-world operations that will transform the future of orbital logistics. #AstroscaleUS #RPO #OnOrbitServicing #NASA

This week’s visit by President Emmanuel Macron to Toulouse marked a key milestone for France’s space sector. At Air Base 101, he presented the first operational stage of Space Command and a renewed national roadmap - one that positions France and Europe to act with greater confidence in the years ahead. The strategy outlines five priorities: securing independent launch access, modernising industry, reinforcing defence assets, advancing scientific and exploratory missions, and boosting Europe’s competitiveness through updated governance. For Astroscale France, these commitments feel both familiar and energising. They reflect what drives our teams every day. Our contribution is clear: ✔️ We invest in local talent and trusted partnerships to strengthen sustainable autonomy for France and Europe. ✔️ We develop sovereign, innovative technologies that enhance resilience and situational awareness for defence and government partners. ✔️ We operate with the speed and adaptability of a modern space company, reinforcing Europe’s industrial strength. ✔️ And we collaborate across Europe and internationally to protect the orbital environment on which our societies depend. We are ready to support this momentum with sovereign, agile solutions. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/eXuxNAVF ___________ La visite du président Emmanuel Macron à Toulouse cette semaine a marqué une étape clé pour le secteur spatial français. Sur la base aérienne 101, il a présenté la première capacité opérationnelle du Commandement de l’Espace et une nouvelle feuille de route nationale, préparant la France et l’Europe à agir avec plus d’assurance dans les années à venir. Cette stratégie repose sur cinq priorités : un accès autonome aux lancements, la modernisation de l’industrie, le renforcement des moyens de défense, le développement des missions scientifiques et d’exploration, et une compétitivité européenne renforcée par une gouvernance renouvelée. Pour Astroscale France, ces orientations sont à la fois familières et stimulantes. Elles reflètent ce qui motive nos équipes au quotidien. Notre contribution est claire : ✔️ Nous investissons dans les talents locaux et des partenariats de confiance pour soutenir une autonomie durable. ✔️ Nous développons des technologies souveraines et innovantes pour renforcer la résilience et la connaissance de la situation des acteurs publics et de défense. ✔️ Nous opérons avec la rapidité et l’agilité d’une entreprise spatiale moderne, contribuant à la solidité industrielle européenne. ✔️ Et nous collaborons en Europe et à l’international pour protéger l’environnement orbital dont dépendent nos sociétés. Astroscale France est prête à accompagner cette dynamique avec des solutions souveraines et agiles.

Space sustainability isn’t a talking point anymore — it’s becoming a business-critical part of satellite design. ♻️🛰️ With repeat orders for our second-generation Astroscale docking plates, from established primes and new-space innovators, the market is clearly moving toward serviceable, sustainable, and future-ready constellations. Our docking plates enable: ✅ In-orbit servicing, upgrades, and safe removal ✅ Sustainability by design, supporting debris mitigation ✅ Flight-proven reliability with multiple successful launches ✅ Simple integration across spacecraft types "Operators are now designing satellites to be resilient, serviceable, and sustainable from the start. By partnering with Astroscale, they’re taking concrete steps toward responsible space operations," said Andrew Faiola, Commercial Director & VP, Astroscale UK. As space policy evolves and market expectations rise, Astroscale is helping set the direction — giving operators the tools to meet both today’s requirements and tomorrow’s challenges. 🌍✨ Want to learn how Astroscale can make your satellite serviceable and more sustainable? Catch us next week at Space Tech Expo Europe, Booth E14, or contact our team today at salesDP@astroscale.com. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/guzxtVgy
