  • Last November, we achieved a significant milestone by sending a payload to the International Space Station (ISS) for exposed testing in the low Earth orbit (LEO) environment. Our payload was hosted on a MISSE mission with Aegis Aerospace Inc. and has now safely returned from space! Our payload included a "DragonSCALES" single-cell solar power assembly as part of our collaboration with mPower Technology, Inc. alongside steel samples, and DuPont Kevlar EXO materials. We're especially proud to be the first to return DuPont Kevlar EXO materials from orbit, allowing us to examine space exposure effects on this important shielding material. This hardware flight on the ISS is a major step for Gravitics. We're pleased to report that the payload performed well, providing valuable materials data and demonstrating that our technology works effectively in space. We'd like to extend a big thank you to the entire ISS team, the talented astronauts on board who worked on this, and to Aegis Aerospace for helping advance commercial space infrastructure technology.

  • Last week, we unveiled Orbital Carriers—a leap forward for in-space infrastructure. The world took notice, and we are energized by the overwhelming interest in our mission. Orbital Carriers are designed to significantly enhance the nation's space defense posture by providing on-demand rapid-response capabilities, giving the US Space Force flexibility and speed for in-space operations. We're not just building hardware; we're building a brighter future powered by essential space infrastructure. Give us a follow and check out gravitics.com/news for a front-row seat to innovation and progress.

  • Introducing: Orbital Carriers The Orbital Carrier is designed to pre-position multiple maneuverable space vehicles that can deliver a rapid response to address threats on orbit. "The Orbital Carrier is a game-changer, acting as a pre-positioned launch pad in space. It bypasses traditional launch constraints, enabling space vehicle operators to rapidly select a deployment orbit on-demand." -Gravitics CEO Colin Doughan
