Develops reusable spacecraft through on-orbit assembly and reprovisioning, extending operations and cutting lifecycle costs by 80%

About

SpaceBilt, originally founded as Skycorp Incorporated, develops reusable spacecraft infrastructure through on-orbit assembly and reprovisioning technologies. The company designs the Orbital Logistics Vehicle, a fully reusable spacecraft platform for the inner solar system capable of payload swapping and propulsion reprovisioning. SpaceBilt holds patents in space logistics and spacecraft servicing, one of which was acquired by Northrop Grumman and forms the basis of their Mission Extension Vehicle program. In collaboration with Axiom Space, the company is developing the AxODC Node ISS, an optically interconnected orbital data center node for the International Space Station planned for 2027 launch. The company also served as principal investigator for the Lonestar M1 lunar server payload and won the NASA Watts on the Moon Centennial Prize for lunar surface power distribution.
