Inexpensive, Fully Functional Spacecraft Delivered In Less Than A Single Day

Plummeting launch costs and new launch providers have transformed access to space (primarily LEO), but the process for creating spacecraft themselves has advanced little since the 1970s. Most spacecraft are still custom engineered from the ground up, then hand-assembled. The process is labor intensive, extremely costly, and full of risks and uncertainties, whether it is cost, completion dates, or technical. 

Space.Org, Inc. is a pre-seed New Space startup aimed at the $13 billion “smallsat” market (30 to 1500kg). Our patent-pending technology for modular spacecraft construction and integrated project management will solve this dilemma, reducing costs by an order of magnitude, shortening assembly time to less than a day, and providing a fixed price and delivery date. This represents a transformation as profound and disruptive as next generation launch systems, and ultimately, far more lucrative.

As a result, spacecraft launch rates are soaring. The reduced cost of entry to the New Space Economy is now powering a burgeoning private market for spacecraft and a widening diversity of space-related products and services. As shown, below, the Mini class of SmallSats (201 kg - 600 kg payload) now dominates the market. 

This means that spacecraft mission economics are now driven by the cost of spacecraft design and build, rather than deployment. A trend that will only accelerate as heavy launch platforms like Starship, Vulcan, and New Glenn come online over the next few years and offer increased lift capacity and payload fairing volume.
