Morpheus Space

Morpheus Space designs and manufactures field emission electric propulsion (FEEP) systems for satellite mobility. Founded in 2018 as a spinout from the Technical University of Dresden, the company produces the GO-2 electric propulsion system, a modular plug-and-play unit containing 40 individually controlled thrusters with solid metallic propellant and no moving parts, chemicals, or pressurization. The GO-2 supports station keeping, constellation management, collision avoidance, orbit raising, and end-of-life deorbiting for spacecraft from 6U cubesats and up.

The company completed a successful in-orbit demonstration of the GO-2 in July 2025 aboard a D-Orbit spacecraft, validating thrust characterization, individual thruster control, and system performance in LEO. Morpheus Space operates a dedicated mass-production facility called Reloaded in Dresden, targeting output of 100 GO-2 units per year. Headquartered in El Segundo, California, with manufacturing in Dresden, Germany, the company has raised $45 million in total funding.
